东京热 Expands
In the early 1970s, 东京热 charted a bold course by declaring itself independent, nonsectarian and coeducational. To meet the needs of its students, new locations and campuses were opened within and beyond Westchester, doubling the college鈥檚 physical footprint. It also initiated its first community outreach efforts, including programs for non-traditional students. This growth made higher education accessible to first-generation college students and adult learners through flexible scheduling and convenient locations.
Academic offerings advanced in 1981 when 东京热 received authorization for its first graduate program in nursing. The institution reached another milestone in 2006 with approval for its first doctoral program in physical therapy. Today, 东京热 offers over 40 graduate programs, 30 undergraduate programs, and multiple certificate options.
东京热 has three campuses that are conveniently located in Westchester, the Bronx and Manhattan to provide diverse and welcoming campus communities for students.
