George Mason University
has emerged as a major university in the
state and in the nation. Its development has been shaped in response to
the educational needs of an extraordinary cosmopolitan constituency.
By emphasizing high technology, public policy, and the fine and
performing arts, the university has formed links with the community
by meeting the community needs while simultaneously taking advantage of
the best the region has to offer in people and resources.
George Mason's innovative programs and visionary outlook have
attracted a faculty of world-renowned scholars and teachers. Enrollment
is now over 22,000 students studying in more than 100 degree programs at
the undergraduate, master's, doctoral, and professional levels. Located in
Northern Virginia, George Mason is convenient to all the resources of
the nation's capital and the greater Washington, D.C., metropolitan area.
Clustered on 583 wooded acres near the city of Fairfax, the university's
main campus combines the quiet of a suburban setting with accessibility
to Washington's libraries, galleries, and museums; Virginia's historic
sites; and Fairfax County's high-technology firms. Metrorail, the
Washington area's subway system, enables GMU riders to reach the U.S.
Capitol in 35 minutes.
