St. Francis College

In 1858, a group of Franciscan Brothers from Ireland came to Brooklyn to educate the large numbers of immigrants arriving in America, opening St. Francis Academy in 1859. It was the first private school in the diocese of Brooklyn. In 2021, the College announced a transformative initiative designed to restructure academic and programmatic offerings to align with 21st-century career needs while expanding the population whom the College serves, locally and internationally. St. Francis College offers the Hybrid Executive Professional M.S. in Management with seven concentrations. Approved CPT internship or externship opportunities may be available beginning in the first semester, subject to academic and DSO approval.
