Visit Mansfield
Sometimes you just have to see something to really appreciate it. Like the sweeping vistas you can only find here on our campus nestled in the majestic mountains of Northcentral Pennsylvania.

At the heart of campus is the iconic North Hall, which features a six-story atrium and our library, as well as our cutting-edge Virtual Reality Lab. Just outside those doors is South Hall Mall, anchoring the center of campus. Pass through here on your way to class, hang out with friends, or grab lunch to go while you enjoy the beautiful seasonal scenery.
Feeling adventurous? Lambs Creek Bike and Hike Trail is just a jog or bike ride from campus. Or hop in the car for a quick ride to the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon for some Insta-worthy photos, especially in the fall. Learn to dream big, and it begins here!
