In a recent interview, Dr. Hamilton expressed his enthusiasm for Beal University stating, "I am motivated by a deep passion for advancing education and creating an environment where students can thrive intellectually and personally. Beal University has been around since 1891; we are committed to the community, and I think that has always been our call to action. That is, how can we engage someone who lives and works in a particular area where they're our neighbors and help them get ahead? I think our programs speak to that motivation."
Addressing the challenges and opportunities in contemporary education, Dr. Hamilton shared his insights on the evolving landscape. "Education is at a crossroads, with technology and innovation reshaping how we teach and learn. It's crucial for institutions to embrace change while preserving the core values that make education transformative.

We will work closely with faculty, staff, and students to enhance existing programs and embrace emerging educational technologies."
Confident about propelling Beal University to new heights of academic success, Dr. Hamilton stated, "There are ways to pair disciplines together to create real differentiators, whether those are formal degree programs, micro credentials or certificate programs to really say, 'Hello, America. we're out here!' We're doing something that no one else is doing with high quality! We're offering it in an easily consumable format and in a distance environment which will allow us to scale and expand regionally and, in some cases, internationally."
Beal University is thrilled to welcome Dr. Josh Hamilton to the leadership team and eagerly anticipates the positive impact he will have on Beal University's future.
