WHY NORTHERN KENTUCKY?

Northern Kentucky is one of the fastest growing regions in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Supported by a strong economic sector that includes technology, manufacturing, business, education and health care, the region is home to several key industries. Signature attractions include the Newport Aquarium, the Florence Speedway, Newport on the Levee, the Licking River Greenway, the Ark Encounter and the Purple People Bridge which connects Northern Kentucky directly across the Ohio River to neighboring Cincinnati. With friendly residents and charming communities, Northern Kentucky offers an idyllic quality of life and place to call home. Why Northern Kentucky?

"I moved here to be closer to family. I live in the Cincinnati area, just minutes away from the Urban Metro campus. I love working at Gateway and have really enjoyed getting to know the amazing faculty, staff and students."
