The university operates with the motto “Veritas et Utilitas,” meaning “Truth and Service.” 

Howard University has given more than 130,000 degrees in the arts, sciences, and humanities. The historic main campus is located on a hilltop in Northwest Washington, just blocks away from U Street and the Howard Theatre. It offers Medical Physics (M.S.), Undergraduate Programs, Graduate Programs, Doctorate Programs, and Professional Programs.
