WHAT IS THE ACTIVE LEARNING ECOSYSTEM?
Personalized Learning Experience for Students
We put students at the center of hands-on learning with technology that is built into the fabric of the curriculum. Students actively participate in the learning process by doing, making and interacting with each other and the environment around them, anytime and anywhere.
With our revolutionary approach, it’s no surprise 98 percent of Maryville graduates obtain a job in their chosen field or attend graduate school within six months of graduation.
“An ethos of pedagogical innovation permeates the Maryville community. The energy generated by active
learning approaches and new technology resonate throughout the student and faculty experience.”
— Cherie Fister, Vice President for Academic Affairs
