To provide unprecedented educational opportunities for the region, Georgia Southern University and Savannah State University will host a joint open house on Georgia Southern’s Liberty Campus in Hinesville on Feb. 7 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Military members and their families, and other prospective students, will have the chance to learn more about career-enhancing programs where they live and work.

This innovative partnership enables students to enroll at Georgia Southern’s Liberty Campus as SSU students and complete the bachelor’s degree in Homeland Security and Emergency Management (HSEM) bachelor’s degree or certificate in Virtual Forensic Science: Evidence Processing, Documentation and Analysis entirely in Hinesville. The addition of the SSU HSEM program and Virtual Forensic Science certificate provides students who call the Hinesville and surrounding communities home with the flexibility of choosing from extended degree programs offered by regional universities in their community.  

Georgia Southern University’s Liberty Campus, with its state-of-the-art instructional spaces and collaborative environment, continues to prepare students for the workforce by offering affordable academic programs that include psychology, elementary education, nursing and a certificate in cybersecurity. This unique campus experience in Hinesville focuses on student success, providing face-to-face instruction and evening class options.
