Hands-on from day one

Small class sizes, even in the first semester, hands-on lab experiences, field work and research opportunities prepare you for the world beyond college, whether you are interested in pursuing graduate school, medical school or finding a rewarding job. Because of the small class sizes, nearly every departmental opportunity is available to students from their first day on campus.听

Real-world learning and professional experiences

Our students not only learn the skills they will need for the future in a classroom setting. They also have the opportunity to dig into hands-on research projects. Students have the opportunity to analyze different forms of life in our on-campus lake, Lake Placida. Students have analyzed microscopic organisms, water quality and even larger organisms like the local turtle population.
