Internships

Leverage our alumni connections and gain valuable networking and career experiences—with faculty that mentor you throughout the internship. You'll learn how to be your best self, and how to take the next best step. 

 

Research

Students examine plants in a lab.

Unparalleled access to research typically found at the graduate level. Two faculty members will be in your corner: one who's a collaborative research partner, and one who helps put your experience into the context of your life and future career.

Community Projects

Immersed in your community, you'll apply your liberal arts education in real-world scenarios that impact those around you, with the core value of justice embedded into the experience. Faculty help you find your way and tell your story. 

Study Away

Enrich your academic journey with a wide range of domestic and international study away programs. Under the guiding mentorship of a faculty member throughout, you'll expand both your personal horizons and professional prospects.
