Doane University creates distinctive educational experiences—rooted in the liberal arts and strengthened by innovative, career-connected learning—to prepare students for lives and careers grounded in inquiry, ethical leadership, and service to their communities, both local and global.

Since 1872, Doane has continually evolved to meet the needs of its students and the world it serves. Our historic campus reflects generations of tradition, discovery, and transformation, while today’s Tiger community continues to build on that legacy with new ideas, new opportunities, and a shared commitment to leading and serving with purpose.
