About

Huntington University is a private, Christ-centered liberal arts institution in northeast Indiana best known for its nationally acclaimed Digital Media Arts program—particularly its award-winning animation and film tracks—alongside strong offerings in agriculture, nursing, and education. Campus life is defined by a close-knit, faith-integrated community where spiritual growth is woven into daily academics, regular chapel services, and Forester athletic events.
