In 2023, Newsweek named Duke one of “America's Greatest Workplaces.” It was one of only eight higher education institutions – and the only one in North Carolina – mentioned in the list. Duke also consistently ranks in the top of “America’s Greatest Workplaces for Diversity,” and “America’s Greatest Workplaces for Women.”
We are in Durham, North Carolina, part of the Research Triangle Park (RTP) area. RTP includes major research institutions like the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, NC State University, the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, and the Environmental Protection Agency. RTP is also home to vibrant pharmaceutical, biotech, and high-tech industries. We enjoy reasonable costs of living, mild weather, outstanding public schools, a highly educated population, diverse and cosmopolitan communities, and offer a wide range of cultural activities (music, theater award-winning dining, arts, sports, etc.). Durham is a short drive from incredible wide-open beaches and beautiful mountains. These are only a few of the many reasons why Durham, NC is considered one of the top places to live in the United States.
