HPU Features
Life Skills
Your degree is not the thing that gets you a job.
You will get you a job. HPU is a life accelerator – compressing time and allowing you to amass a lifetime of experience in just four years. You begin your professional careers as soon as you arrive on campus. You graduate ready for the real world. And the real world wants you.
Explore the questions that you’ll encounter during your professional and personal life.
Test yourself. Do you have the answers?

Your job interview is at the restaurant
From the board room to the dining room, HPU will prepare you to be comfortable in any business environment. 1924 Prime is a learning lab where each week you can learn about formal dinning etiquette and international cuisine. With four years of preparation, you'll crush that interview.

The CEO of your dream company sits next to you on a plan
Before you can sell anything, you have to sell yourself. That’s where HPU’s Sales Club comes in. Led by Professor Larry Quinn, you’ll learn how to seize networking opportunities, while testing yourself in real-world settings like the airplane fuselage in Cottrell Hall.

With the help of the Belk Entrepreneurship Center you can. The center provides individualized assistance, Shark Tank style business plan competitions, and access to entrepreneurs like Netflix co-founder Marc Randolph, all to help advance your venture.
