LOCATIONS
Gannon University is comprised of two vibrant campuses in Erie, Pa. and Ruskin, Fla. Gannon's Erie campus is central to many businesses and organizations that actively work with our faculty and staff to enhance hands-on learning opportunities for students. This urban campus in the heart of downtown is within walking distance to restaurants, shopping, entertainment and Lake Erie beaches close by, and is just within a two-hour drive of Cleveland, Buffalo, Pittsburgh and Niagara Falls.

Gannon's Ruskin campus is a dynamic and beautiful area between Tampa and Bradenton that rates highly on measures of livability and attractiveness. The campus puts our faculty and staff at the center of a rapidly expanding healthcare sector where they can engage students in educational and outreach activities and meet the need for health professionals.
