Unity Environmental University is a private university based in New Gloucester, Maine. It offers undergraduate and graduate education based on sustainability science that emphasizes study of the environment and natural resources. Initially founded as a residential school in Unity, Maine, the university expanded into online education in 2016 which grew both its enrollment and number of academic programs.[1] The university moved its online program to the historic Pineland Farms campus in New Gloucester in 2019 and later relocated their administrative headquarters there.[2][3] Unity Environmental University operates both an online-only program and a hybrid program with on-campus courses in New Gloucester. It also operates a farm and indoor growing facility in Thorndike and an outdoor center in Moose River.[4][3]
