Duke Days scheduled for fall and winter

Admissions event focuses on engineering, computer and energy sciences.

Faculty speaking to prospective student

The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford will hold Duke Days for prospective students interested in pursuing computer information systems and technology, information systems, energy science and technology or one Pitt-Bradford’s engineering options.

Duke Days allow students to meet with faculty, learn about programs and tour the George B. Duke Engineering and Information Technologies Building along with its hands-on labs and makerspace. Students will also learn about the admissions process and eat in the university dining hall.

Duke Days will take place weekdays from 1 to 4:30 p.m. on Oct. 28, Nov. 11, Jan. 17, 2025, and Jan. 31, 2025. Space is limited and registration is encouraged at upb.pitt.edu/visit-campus.  

Pitt-Bradford also has three remaining Saturday open houses this fall where students and their families can meet faculty and staff, tour campus and talk with current students all in one afternoon.  

Open houses begin at noon and will be held Oct. 19, Nov. 2 and Nov. 16. The program ends around 3:30 p.m.  

“The best way to get the feel of a campus and see what it would be like to be a student there is to visit,” said Alex Nazemetz, director of admissions. “And these are great opportunities for prospective students and their families to talk with faculty and current students and get their questions answered about things ranging from meal plans to how dual-enrollment credits transfer.”  

Daily visits are also available at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. most weekdays and include a meal. Registration is requested for all admissions events. To register for any admissions event or take a virtual tour, visit upb.pitt.edu/visit-campus.
