''Not to be confused with the University of Edinburgh.'' Edinboro University is a public liberal arts university located in Edinboro, Pennsylvania, United States, and one of 14 schools associated with the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE). The town is named after Edinburgh in Scotland. Edinboro University is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSACS). It has more than 8,000 enrolled students spread between the main campus as well as the Porreco Center in Erie and a temporary campus location at Parkside Commons in Meadville. == Campuses == The main campus is located from Erie and within of the educational and major population centers of McKean, Waterford, and Albion. The main campus has 42 buildings on a campus which includes a pond, open fields and woods, 11 on-campus residence halls (Highlands 1~8, Earp Hall, Dearborn Hall and Lawrence Towers) for approximately 5,000 students, and the modern seven-story Baron-Forness Library with more than 490,000 bound volumes, 1.4 million microform units, and Internet access. Edinboro University offers 100 degree programs and 57 minors. More than one-half of the faculty members at Edinboro University have earned doctorates or the highest degree attainable in their field. Many of them have been recognized nationally and internationally for their outstanding research and scholarly accomplishments. In addition, a number of faculty members have held state and national leadership roles in their professional organizations. The student-faculty ratio is 18:1. Many facilities on Edinboro's campus are new, recently renovated, or have plans for renovation. In fall 2007, Academy Hall, the first building on Edinboro's campus, was reopened after a complete renovation in honor of the university's 150th Anniversary. Major renovations to Sox Harrison Stadium were completed by a gift from the Student Government Association, giving the football and track facilities Sportexe artificial turf, a new scoreboard, and lighting. A new state-of-the-art facility for the music program, the William Alexander Music Center, and a major renovation to the Frank G. Pogue Student Center were completed in early 2008. The Mike S. Zafirovski Sports and Recreation Center, a large domed indoor recreation and event facility, was completed in 2009. The university completed a $115 million partnership between American Campus Communities and the Edinboro University Foundation to construct eight suite-style residence halls. More recently the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania funded major renovations of Cooper Science Hall, Ross Hall with a climate controlled pedestrian bridge to the library, and making the president's home ADA compliant. Edinboro students may also choose to complete coursework toward workforce-related associate's degrees at The Porreco College in Erie (the Parkside Commons classroom in Meadville was closed in 2014). The Porreco Center sits on the former Louis Porreco horse farm and estate in Millcreek Township and allows students to complete a community college-like education without leaving the Erie area. The Porreco Center consists of 10 buildings and a small pond. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edinboro University of Pennsylvania」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
