David Lipscomb University
Lipscomb University, established in 1891, enrolls more than 2,500 students in more than 100 major areas
of study leading to bachelor's degrees, as well as master's degree programs in biblical studies, business
administration and education.
Lipscomb's academic program is organized in five colleges: the College of Arts and Humanities, including
the School of Fine and Performing Arts; College of Bible and Ministry, College of Business, College of
Education and Professional Studies, and the College of Mathematics and Sciences. An Adult Studies Program offers five majors - accounting,
information systems, management, marketing and organizational communication - at times convenient to
working adults, on a schedule that permits progress similar to that of a full-time traditional student.
More students major in a business-related field than any other academic discipline, but Lipscomb is also widely recognized for
its success in several other areas.
More than 1,000 graduates are teachers in public or private primary and secondary schools in Tennessee
alone. The acceptance rate of premedical graduates to medical schools has been well over twice the
national average for more than 20 years. Pre-law graduates have attended such prestigious law schools as
Harvard, Duke and Vanderbilt. Dietetics graduates are accepted to highly competitive post-graduate
internships at an almost 100 percent rate. The number of students majoring in Bible has nearly tripled
in the last three years. In addition, Lipscomb was ranked 11th among Southern Regional Liberal Arts Colleges in the 1999 issue of
U.S. News and World Report's "America's Best Colleges."
With a primary mission of integrating Christian faith and practice with academic excellence, Lipscomb
University is "lighting the way" for its students.
