Ohio Northern University

ONU has a rich history of academic excellence, and we’re always evolving to meet society’s ever-changing needs. We’ve most recently been recognized for teaching quality, high graduation rates, commitment to volunteer service and providing a high return on investment for our graduates.

The University’s distinctive academic program includes mutually supporting liberal and professional education components that integrate practice with theory, complemented by excellent co-curricular offerings that enrich the Northern experience. To fulfill this mission, faculty and staff engage with students so they can learn to think critically, creatively, and entrepreneurially, communicate effectively, gain practical experience, solve problems collaboratively, and act as ethical and responsible members of a global community.

The Office of Institutional Research (OIR) will utilize state of the art tools to collect, analyze and interpret information to support the decision making of Ohio Northern University. OIR will be a visible, strategic partner to the university administration and faculty in providing adequate and appropriate direction to support the priorities and operations of the university.

Life after college can be uncertain for many graduates, but at ONU, you have an advantage. You’ll be prepared for a wide range of jobs with a strong liberal arts foundation. The relationships you build with your professors will open doors to the professional world. And no matter what career awaits you, the staff at Polar Careers will assist you with developing a variety of search strategies to find internships and co-ops, seek professional employment, or enter graduate or professional school and more.
