Campus Information
JWU Charlotte’s campus is located the heart of the Queen City, walking distance to the Truist Field Ballpark, Bank of America Stadium, 7th Street Public Market, Romare Bearden Park, and more.
Beyond the social opportunities like arts and shopping, Charlotte has been ranked among the best places for business, so it’s a perfect location to launch your career.
The campus was established as a joint effort between the university, the city, and industry partners, meaning JWU is incredibly plugged into all of Charlotte’s available opportunities and growth. There’s even a DoubleTree Hilton Hotel on campus where hospitality students can hone their craft, and a Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center where business students can brainstorm ideas for presentations and entrepreneurial undertakings.
