Build your future you, piece by piece.
Your education is about you. The pieces and parts you choose to create it will not only empower you to achieve your life and career goals, but also help you become the best version of yourself—the you you were always meant to be.
Your education, your way.
There’s no limit to what you can achieve with an education that’s as broad and deep as it is personal. We’ve built on nearly two centuries of values-based academic excellence to help you develop the professional skillset, intellectual curiosity, and self-confidence to take on anything and everything in your career and life.
Choose from 64 majors and 50+ minors to create your own learning experience. In addition to classroom study, you’ll put your learning into practice through internships, field experiences, student-led research, and study abroad opportunities.
Our faculty are experts in their fields and committed to your personal success. You’ll have an academic advisor who will mentor and guide you throughout your full college experience, for learning and support that goes way beyond the classroom.
