Training & OutreachAbout Temple UniversityTemple University is a part of the commonwealth system of Higher Education in Pennsylvania. It is a comprehensive public research university, founded by Russell H. Conwell in 1884. While historically Temple has been primarily a commuter university, there is a growing residence hall population of over 6,000 students, with many thousands more living right off campus. In recent years, main campus has developed into an extremely busy, active and vibrant setting where students pursue their academic studies along with access to all the leisure, athletic and community activities and resources typical of a major research university. Specifically, the student body is comprised of about 22,000 full time students (undergraduate, graduate, and professional students including programs in medicine, law, business, nursing, dentistry and podiatry) and approximately 12,000 part time students. The university is committed to maintaining a diverse educational community that typically averages about 50%-55% Caucasians, 20%-25% African Americans, 5-10% Asian Americans, 3%-5% Latinos, less than 1% Native Americans, and 5% of multi-racial or unidentified ethnicity. In addition, over 1,000 students are from countries outside of the USA. The main campus of Temple University is conveniently located in North Philadelphia and easily accessible by public transportation from downtown Philadelphia and the surrounding suburbs. Approximately one mile due north is the Health Sciences Campus, which includes schools of Medicine, Nursing, and Dentistry and there are additional regional campuses at Ambler and in downtown Philadelphia including the School of Podiatry. Professional schools of Law, Business, Engineering and Communications are located at Main Campus. Temple University is committed to providing equal educational and employment opportunities for all persons without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, lifestyle, sexual orientation, or disabilities.
