Delaware State University

Delaware State University

DSU has a long and proud history as one of America’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). It has a blend of both long-standing traditions and growing diversity. Founded in 1891 as the State College for Colored Students, DSU takes pride in its heritage as one of the country’s first land-grant educational institutions, rooted early on in agriculture and education. The University current population includes a 76 percent African-American enrollment and an increasing number of Caucasian, Hispanic, Asian and other international students.

DSU’s focus on cutting-edge research, technology and business practices have brought the University into modernity and made it a member of the scientific, solution-seeking community. Today, it remains well in the vanguard of other four-year institutions throughout the region and country.

DSU currently offers 54 undergraduate degree options, an impressive number for a school of DSU’s size (averaging 3,700 students). It also offers 23 master’s degree programs, recently adding a new program in molecular and cellular neuroscience, as well as five doctoral degree programs in areas such as interdisciplinary applied mathematics/mathematical physics and educational leadership.
