About Campbell University

In a quiet bend of Harnett County, a campus rallies behind the Fighting Camels. Campbell University is known for balancing a liberal arts core with career-focused study in health, business, science, education, and the public sphere. Students get face time with professors who teach, advise, and nudge you forward. The grounds hold labs and studios, a well used library, tutoring and writing centers, counseling and wellness care, plus places to plug into faith and service.

Life in Buies Creek moves at an easy clip, with intramurals, outdoor workouts, arts events, and spirited athletics filling the calendar. The small town setting means real responsibility with local schools, clinics, and nonprofits. And when you want more, Raleigh and the Triangle's internships, courts, clinics, and companies sit within reach. Career prep leans practical: internships, field experiences, mock interviews, alumni mentors, and regionwide partnerships. The culture is close knit, hands shaking at the dining hall. Camel pride runs deep, a little quirky, and that's part of the charm.
