The principle of learning by practice underlies every major feature of a Bennington education: the master-apprentice model of teaching and learning; the requirement that students direct the course of their own education; the winter Field Work Term, which gives students work experience and connects them to the greater community. The College's commitment to learning across the disciplines extends to the faculty, who teach what is uppermost in their minds, exploring new pursuits as well as ongoing areas of study and work. Bennington is grounded in the conviction that as a college education develops students' professional capacities, it should also prepare them to be deeply thoughtful and actively engaged citizens of the world.

A Filosofia dos cursos da Faculdade Nacional – FINAC – é a de buscar uma educação integrada à sociedade. A instituição estará sintonizada com essa sociedade no sentido de perceber seus anseios, suas demandas e suas alternâncias de percurso. A Integração escola-sociedade não significa que a FINAC será mera receptora de problemas ou fornecedoras de soluções, mas, principalmente, deverá ser uma gestora de idéias e de conhecimentos que contribuam para mudanças sociais.
Um outro aspecto importante dessa filosofia é a valorização da cidadania, de buscar formar cidadãos conscientes e ativos, comprometidos com sua história e com a sociedade, buscando sempre melhorá-la, através de ações e posturas ética.
Um terceiro aspecto é a crença na ação transformadora do conhecimento. Um bom profissional deve possuir, além dom instrumental de seu ofício, uma sólida formação científica. Mais ainda, essa formação técnico-científica não deve se esgotar no curso de graduação. A competência científica e profissional é um projeto para toda a vida. Se o aprendizado contínuo já podia ser encarado como um pressuposto básico do bom profissional, ele se tornou um fator de sobrevivência de qualquer profissional neste mundo globalizado, complexo e competitivo em que vivemos, com suas constantes mutações tecnológicas e sociais.

A história da Unigranrio começou em 1970, ano em que o professor José de Souza Herdy criou a Associação Fluminense de Educação (AFE), entidade mantenedora das então Faculdades Unidas Grande Rio.

Os cursos de Pedagogia e Letras começaram a funcionar no ano seguinte, sendo criado, em 1974, o Centro Educacional de Duque de Caxias (CEDUC) para atuar como Colégio de Aplicação.
A década de 80 registrou a criação dos primeiros cursos da área de Saúde — Odontologia, Enfermagem e Farmácia —, seguidos dos cursos de Ciências Biológicas, Matemática e Química. Quando o professor José de Souza Herdy faleceu, em 1989, deixou montada toda uma estrutura que possibilitou a continuidade da obra educacional. Assumiu a direção geral da instituição o seu filho, Arody Cordeiro Herdy, que coordenou todo o processo de reconhecimento das Faculdades Unidas Grande Rio como Universidade. |
