Create lifelong opportunities through Davenport University, a private, not-for-profit university in Michigan.
Davenport’s efficient, career-centered focus is what sets our in-person and online bachelor’s degree programs, graduate degree programs, professional development and certifications apart from any other university in Michigan. Plus, Davenport’s “Excellence System” prepares students with real-world competencies sought by top employers, such as communication, teamwork, critical thinking and problem-solving, as well as program-specific competencies.
Recognized for excellence
Davenport was the first university to be selected for a 2020 Michigan Performance Excellence Award. This distinction is the highest honor Michigan Performance Excellence (MIPEx) gives to Michigan organizations that demonstrate outstanding performance, leadership and operational excellence.
Davenport earned national notoriety in June 2021 and became the first university in Michigan to earn The ACE/Fidelity Investments Award for Institutional Transformation. This prestigious award recognizes colleges or universities that, in a period of great change in higher education, have responded to challenges in innovative and creative ways that allow the institution to thrive.
Trailblazer in online learning
As Michigan’s first online learning community, we’re a leader among online colleges in Michigan. For more than 20 years, we’ve been perfecting online education through our Global Campus, which offers online associate, bachelor’s and graduate degree programs. All of our classes, online or in-person, are also evaluated through Instructional Design and align with Quality Matters (QM™) to ensure the highest instructional quality.
Accredited and recognized
Davenport is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, and, in addition, our colleges hold many accreditations and recognitions as well. For example, our College of Technology was named a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education by the National Security Agency and the Department of Homeland Security, making it one of only a select number of designated colleges in Michigan to receive this designation.
