UC Blue Ash College is transforming its campus and building on the momentum of its recent growth as it welcomes students for the fall semester.
The college is projecting total enrollment to top 4,600 students this fall, reflecting an increase of more than 5% for the second year in a row. UC Blue Ash is the most diverse college within the university, with students coming from across the Tristate and around the world — there are over 30 different countries represented among the student body.
Work continues on major renovations to Muntz Hall, the flagship building on the park-like campus that is located in the heart of Blue Ash, Ohio. After comprehensive renovations to the second and third floors of Muntz Hall over the past few years, work recently began on a portion of the first floor. It will create a new wing that brings together important student resources, including academic advising, career services, counseling and enrollment services. This phase will also feature a beautiful, two-story atrium that dramatically enhances the main entrance and provides added space for students to meet and study.
Students spend time in the courtyard as they get ready for their first classes.
The college continues to grow its academic offerings with more than 50 degree and certificate programs, including more online and hybrid course options than ever before. Along with a new associate degree in artificial intelligence that launched this past spring, there are several new micro-credential courses that offer short, focused learning experiences designed to provide in-demand skills.
UC Blue Ash is expanding its career services offerings with more than 180 employer partnerships that help support a growing number of paid internships and co-ops for students. There are also more opportunities for students to attend free career fairs on campus, get help with developing their resume and practice their job interview skills.
