University of New England

Two beautiful campuses ... one great university

Our coastal Maine campus is located on a beautiful site in Biddeford, Maine, where the Saco River flows into the Atlantic Ocean. With more than 4,000 feet of water frontage, enjoying the ocean comes naturally to our students.The people of southern Maine are friendly and welcoming, and the coastal area has a long history as a popular vacation destination.

The campus is home to the College or Arts and Sciences, which offers more than 30 undergraduate majors, and the College of Osteopathic Medicine. The University Campus, with more than 540 acres, is home of the Harold Alfond Center for Health Sciences, a state-of-the-art 80,000-square-foot science education facility, and the Marine Science Education and Research Center, which houses the Marine Animal Rehabilitation Center.

Our quintessential historic New England campus in suburban Portland is home of the College of Health Professions, which offers undergraduate programs in dental hygiene and nursing and graduate programs in nurse anesthesia, occupational therapy, physical therapy, physician assistant, and social work.  The College of Health Professions is a national leader in integrated, interdisciplinary health and healing education, training, research and practice.

The 41-acre campus is also home to the Art Gallery, the Maine Women Writers Collection, and the Dental Hygiene Clinic.

Portland  is one of the nation's most livable small cities with an incredible natural environment,  friendly people, arts and entertainment, as well as major facilities for internships and clinicals. (A history of the Westbrook College Campus)
