Mobile, Alabama
Alabama’s major coastal city Mobile developed around a thriving international shipping port.
It’s a vibrant 300-year old city that is widely recognized for its verdant beauty, unique colonial history, Mardi Gras celebrations, music festivals, and art scene. The city is the cultural center of the Gulf Coast region; a melting pot of people, cultures, and traditions. These varying cultures are celebrated during the Mobile International Festival each Autumn, and other events throughout the year.
Mobile’s particular development makes it a unique city, not just in Alabama, but of the world at large. It is home to many different architectural styles, which can be seen on a bike ride through one of its 7 historic districts, each of which has its own unique history and presence. You can turn any corner in these historic districts and see French, Spanish, African, and Creole influences, alongside its modern Americanness..
Fortunately though, Mobile is more than just a tourist destination. It is a place where you can truly develop with a high-quality academic program.
