With a legacy dating back to 1867, Peru State College, Nebraska's first college, began as a teacher training school with a humble building and 60 students. Over the past century and a half, it evolved into a state-of-the-art institution offering a diverse array of undergraduate and graduate programs, both online and in traditional classrooms, serving around 2,000 students. Nestled in the picturesque hills of historic southeast Nebraska along the Missouri River, the institution stands as a beacon of educational excellence.
