Since 1919, Lincoln
University has always maintained an interracial
and intercultural orientation. The geographical
and historical influence of the San Francisco
Bay Area has attracted students from many
nations, especially the countries around the
Pacific Rim. Accordingly, the university has
sought to provide an international setting for
its students. The students are encouraged to be
intellectually curious in the pursuit of
knowledge and understanding of cultural
differences and similarities, and serious in
efforts to find solutions to the problems of the
world today. In recent years, students from more
than forty countries have been enrolled at
Lincoln University.
Lincoln
University offers a unique practical training
program in which international students
are allowed to work in full-time employment in
local American companies while studying for
their degrees. This kind of program is
sometimes known as a "co-op" or
"internship" program, and is only
available at the Oakland, California (San
Francisco Bay area) campus.
