LIFE@TU

Tiffin University’s lifelong learning program,  LIFE@TU, offers compelling, academically oriented, non-credit programming designed for adults aged 50 plus – featuring weekly presentations on engaging topics, taught by current and retired faculty and staff members from area universities, as well as historians, “notable neighbors” with fascinating stories to tell, and experts in the field like health and law. Ten classes are offered each semester (fall and spring). 


With LIFE@TU, you’ll learn about history, science and technology, arts, culture, politics and more. The program is open to residents of Seneca County and the surrounding community. 


Classes are set in a relaxed atmosphere for the pure pleasure of learning – whether through traditional lecture with Powerpoint or video, “armchair interview” format, or expert panel discussion – and meant to transform your life through education. 


There are no admissions requirements, no tests and no grades. Just dive in, learn about and discuss interesting topics – and make some new friends along the way. After the presentations, we welcome you to join us for lunch or coffee at a discounted rate in Cole Dining Hall.
