People often mistake us for a private university, perhaps because of our academic quality, small class sizes, and beautifully maintained campus. However, Washburn University is a publicly funded, independently governed university offering more than 200 academic programs leading to licensure, certification; and associate’s, bachelor’s, master’s, and juris doctorate degrees.
We offer undergraduates broad-based liberal arts and specialized professional instruction. Our 160 acre, residential campus in the heart of Topeka, Kansas gives students access to a multitude of cultural and extracurricular activities that enrich their educations.
