History
Herzing University was founded by Henry and Suzanne Herzing in 1965 as a computer training institute in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
In 1970 the company was established as Herzing Institute, and the organization started to grow through the acquisition of other schools. The name of the University had changed again to Herzing College in 1996. Over the course of years, Herzing has grown to include 11 ground campuses in the United States, plus an online division. In 2009, with the addition of graduate programs, the company was renamed to Herzing University. In 2015, Herzing University became a nonprofit institution.
