The Franciscan Difference
At Franciscan University of Steubenville, our social science majors and minors include all the fundamentals that students need to master to be successful in their chosen fields. However, here at Franciscan, our students are also endowed with Catholic values and morality. They’re taught to incorporate Catholic social teaching into business culture in order to be effective in human resources, market research, and talent or team management. The faith component as well as various internship opportunities set Franciscan students up for success.
