About New England Higher Education
New England is home to more than 250 institutions of higher education, from world-famous Ivy League universities to groundbreaking community colleges, that prepare students for knowledge-based jobs, some of which didn’t even exist when the students first stepped on—or logged on—to campus.
In this compact corner of the United States, these powerhouses create knowledge itself. Research labs spin off new companies and whole industries. Vibrant campuses energize host cities and towns. In addition, these institutions employ more than 250,000 people and have direct operating budgets of $22 billion a year.
The diversity of New England’s campuses—public and private, two-year and four-year, religious and secular, professional and liberal arts—makes the region world-class. The colleges draw in 1 million students each year from across the nation and around the globe and send them forth as teachers, skilled technicians, entrepreneurs, engineers, artists, even Nobel scientists.
About NEBHE
Founded in 1955 by six visionary New England governors, NEBHE brings together leaders of education, higher education, government, business and labor to forge partnerships and advance ideas that enhance the economy and quality of life in the six-state region and around the world.
NEBHE works to increase the education opportunities for New England residents and to promote collaboration among the region’s colleges and universities to expand access, success, affordability and the economic impact of higher education.
