About University of Phoenix

Evenings are when this Phoenix campus hums. It's known for serving working adults, so classrooms light up after the workday as learning teams trade real-world cases over coffee. The setting is contemporary and practical, with glassy rooms, shaded courtyards, and desert landscaping that frames South Mountain on clear days.

Academic strengths lean toward business, education, health care, and technology, backed by a culture that values experience you can use the next morning. Student life is focused, collegial, a little no-nonsense. The university works with local employers and nonprofits, and commencement feels like a working city celebrating its own. Notable alumni include Larry Fitzgerald. And the phoenix emblem is everywhere, a small nod to reinvention.
