Duke If Duke University’s location in Durham, North Carolina, conjures up images of a staid institution in a lethargic southern town, a closer examination of the institution will change those impressions. Set in the middle of the state, this 8,000-acre campus exudes the energy and entrepreneurial spirit of the Research Triangle Park area, Duke’s home. Just as the region is a relatively recent hotbed for economic development and growth, Duke is a relatively young university that pulses with activity and enthusiasm.
