Osher Lifelong Learning Institute

“A great opportunity to learn the things I missed the first time around.”—Vivian Lawsky, charter OLLI member

If you are at least 50 years young and love to learn, we invite you to become a member of the University of Pittsburgh’s Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI). Established in 2005, OLLI is a true learning community with courses that are intellectually challenging but without the stress of tests or grades.

OLLI members may choose from an array of OLLI courses, audit Pitt undergraduate courses, and participate in many special programs. OLLI can enrich your life through an exploration of the arts, humanities, sciences, and social sciences while you meet new people and enjoy new experiences.
