Daemen University
Daemen University is a private university in Amherst, New York, United States. Formerly Daemen College and Rosary Hill College, the nonsectarian school was founded as a Catholic institution by the Sisters of St. Francis in 1947.
As of fall 2020, 2,536 students were enrolled at Daemen (1,631 undergraduate, 905 graduate), and 64 degree majors were offered.
In March 2022, the New York State Board of Regents approved a name change to Daemen University.
Located in Western New York, Daemen's main 46.5-acre (18.8 ha) campus is in a suburban setting in Amherst, New York in the Buffalo Niagara Region. Daemen is on Main Street in Amherst and close to the New York State Thruway and I-290 and the Buffalo Niagara International Airport. The Amherst campus contains 19 buildings or complexes with classrooms, laboratories, residential and athletics facilities.
In 1947, Rosary Hill College was established by the Sisters of St. Francis of Penance and Christian Charity as a Catholic institution of higher education for women offering studies in the liberal arts. The institution has admitted men since the mid-1960s and graduated its first male student in 1965. In 1976, Rosary Hill became a secular and independent institution and was renamed Daemen College, in honor of the founder of the Sisters of St. Francis – Mother Magdalene Daemen, of Holland.
In 2015, Daemen opened the Academic Wellness Center after a $5.6 million renovation of the former YMCA building on Main Street in Amherst.
In 2017, to mark its 70th anniversary, Daemen installed Founders Bell, which was forged in 1858 and restored by the Class of 1967. Each year, the bell is the centerpiece of Founders Celebration, an annual tradition to recognize the institution's history.
In 2020, Daemen opened the Center for Interprofessional Learning and Simulation (CILS), which has eight examination rooms, a counseling room and a space for telehealth counseling and is used by students in the university's nursing, social work, physical therapy, physician assistant studies and other programs.
