Delaware Valley University

Delaware Valley University is a private institution that was founded in 1896. It has a total undergraduate enrollment of 1,807, its setting is suburban, and the campus size is 570 acres. Located in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, DelVal offers more than 25 undergraduate majors, six master’s programs, a doctoral program, and a variety of adult education courses.
In 2011, the college dedicated its new 398-acre Gemmill Campus in Jamison, PA, after a gift from the Gemmill family of land and money in order to further the college's strategic plan, which involves moving to become a university in 2014. Structural changes, such as dividing the college into four distinct schools, are in preparation for this change. Besides the School of Agriculture and Environmental Science, the college has the School of Life and Physical Science, the School of Business and Humanities, and the School of Graduate and Professional Studies. Within Business and Humanities may be found a variety of majors, including Business, Secondary Education, Counseling Psychology, Criminal Justice, and English/Media.
In 2015, DelVal was recognized among the top 30 "great small colleges for a counseling degree." The program offers advanced training in counseling which includes electives in substance abuse, developmental disabilities and behavior modifications.
The School of Graduate and Professional Studies boasts six master's degrees – counseling psychology, policy studies, educational leadership, special education, teaching and learning, and an MBA – as well as a doctoral degree in educational leadership. In spring 2015, DelVal was given approval for a physician assistant program, which will be in place by 2018.
DelVal, as it is commonly called, had a for-credit employment program that required students to work 500 hours in an area of their major; however, this program is now evolving into a more comprehensive experiential learning program, called E360. The program is part of the college’s legacy of linking theoretical learning with practical training. At DelVal, students learn by doing. Each department at the college is incorporating E360 into its curriculum.
Many graduates of Delaware Valley University take positions with the pharmaceutical and food industries, work in government or business, go on to become veterinarians or start their own companies.
In December 2014 the Delaware Valley College Board of Trustees announced plans to expand the College into a university.
==History==
Delaware Valley University opened in 1896 as the National Farm School and offered a three-year curriculum teaching "science with practice" 〔(【引用サイトリンク】last1=WFMZ News )〕 on the school's own farm in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Its founder and first president, Joseph Krauskopf, was an activist Reform rabbi who, inspired by discussions with Leo Tolstoy, hoped to train Jewish immigrants to the United States as farmers. In its early years the school's main private funder was the Federation of Jewish Charities of Philadelphia, but the institution also received funding from the state of Pennsylvania and was open to men from all ethnic and religious backgrounds; however it did not admit women until 1969.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.delval.edu/about-delval/history )
The school opened with only two teachers and eight students, but by 1904 enrollment had grown to 45. Following the Second World War, the school became a four-year college and added additional academic programs, leading to several name change: National Agricultural College (1948) and Delaware Valley College of Science and Agriculture (1960). It added its first graduate programs in 1998.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.delval.edu/about-delval/history )
In December 2014, the College was granted university status, and officially became Delaware Valley University on April 8, 2015.〔http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2014/12/05/delaware-valley-college-granted-university-status/〕
