CNU is a Leadership University

Leadership is one of our core values. You can see leadership, learn about leadership and experience leadership everywhere you turn.

To further its national reputation for leadership education and excellence, CNU is aligned with the standards for a leadership university as defined by the Carnegie Elective Classification for Leadership for Public Purpose—a distinction held by only 25 universities nationwide.
