Greetings from St. Lawrence University! Here in our beautiful corner of northern New York, adventure, creativity, innovation, and tradition take many forms and infuse everything from our demanding liberal arts and sciences curriculum to our career prep programs to our vibrant student life.

As a student at St. Lawrence, your curiosity will be your guide. You’ll ask bold questions that lead to unexpected answers. You’ll seek new opportunities and engage perspectives that differ from your own. In the process, you’ll form your own unique conclusions, because we believe an education is not something you simply absorb—it’s something you DO. Your thirst for knowledge and experience could lead you to pursue independent research for your eventual major or minor, to travel far and wide off campus, and to use the North Country as your classroom.

St. Lawrence students graduate with the skills they need to make an impact, both in their own hometowns and globally. We invite you to visit our campus to get a better sense of how our students, faculty, staff, and alumni can help you shape a future that is both successful and personally fulfilling. You can start here for more information on scheduling a visit, applying to St. Lawrence, or paying for your education. The college search process is the very beginning of a great adventure, and we look forward to working with and getting to know you and your family!

Want to see the world in a different way? Then check out anthropology! As an anthropology student, the whole human world, past and present, will be your subject. You will get the tools you need to understand all aspects of the human experience, from our DNA to the languages we speak to the artifacts we make, from the beginnings of primate evolution to the contemporary era of rich cultural diversity.

Our majors and minors choose from a broad range of courses in archaeology, cultural anthropology, linguistic anthropology, and biological anthropology. Our majors also complete an experiential learning component which can involve study abroad, independent research, community-based learning, or an internship. Our graduates put their anthropological skills to use in many different settings: schools and universities, government agencies, private companies, and non-profit organizations.

Our faculty members have done research in Egypt, India, Indonesia, Namibia, Sudan, and upstate New York, and we mentor student research in many other places both at home and abroad. Our teaching and research laboratories house several collections of artifacts as well as human skeletal materials and ancient bone and fossil casts for hands-on study. We hope to see you in our classes!

Chemists understand the natural world through the structure and bonding of atoms. From their first course in chemistry, St. Lawrence students learn through hands-on experiences in the classroom and cutting-edge labs. They pursue independent research projects with faculty mentors to discover new medications, forms of renewable energy, and insights into the structure of proteins. Many students present their results at regional and national conferences. Our chemistry program builds from its liberal arts setting to educate the whole person, and the National Science Foundation (NSF) couldn’t agree more, providing us with a grant to create the new Liberal Arts Science Scholars program.

Our chemistry majors have gone on to successful careers and prestigious graduate schools, including: Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Columbia University, Cornell University, PerkinElmer, University of California, Berkeley, University of California San Diego, University of Washington, University of Wisconsin–Madison, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, University of Virginia, Vanderbilt University, Vertex Pharmaceuticals and more.

The economics curriculum is designed to familiarize the student with economic theory and “the economic way of thinking,” to provide knowledge about economic institutions, to foster the development of skills in applying economic analysis to contemporary issues, and to create a foundation for critical thinking, problem-solving, and intelligent engaged citizenship. The major provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary to help solve today’s most challenging social and economic problems at a local, regional or global scale.

A major in economics opens up a wide range of career opportunities: from jobs in banking, finance, real estate, consulting, and insurance, to teaching, to entrepreneurial work in business or the non-profit sector. It also provides great preparation for law school or MBA or public policy graduate programs. Fields such as investment, finance, and banking are dotted with St. Lawrence alumni, who in the true Laurentian spirit, love working with our students, often leading to opportunities after graduation. A unique off-campus study program, the New York City Semester, also offers additional hands-on learning experiences that are especially valuable for economics majors.

Students who major in English at St. Lawrence develop critical reading and writing skills, explore diverse cultural backgrounds and historical periods represented by literary works, produce (and sometimes publish!) their own creative work, and examine the relationships between literary art and life. They go on to apply this knowledge in a variety of careers: writing, editing, journalism, education, law, advertising, communications, public relations, and business.

Students can choose to major either in creative writing or literary studies. The major is founded on a fundamental belief that writing and literature infuse and enrich one another. For this reason, literary studies majors who focus on authors such as Jane Austen, William Shakespeare, and Toni Morrison also have the opportunity to write fiction, essays, and poems. Creative writing majors, meanwhile, work in two genres (including fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and journalism) and also study topics such as environmental writing and multi-ethnic literature from across the United States.

Additional opportunities that await English majors include off-campus study (London and New York City are popular), an array of internship possibilities, student-run publications, summer fellowships to support independent literary study and creative writing, and honors projects to complete extended critical studies and book-length creative manuscripts. The writer studying literature develops a critical acumen that fosters sophistication of technique; the literary critic studying creative writing achieves an understanding of the ways an author thinks about craft. Our English department courses help students explore cultural backgrounds and values, examine the bonds between life and art, and discover the liberating qualities of the imagination.

History is more than a catalog of events and actors; it is an ongoing process of discovery and interpretation. All facets of human experience have a historical dimension — the power struggles of monarchs and presidents; the working lives of farmers, sailors and seamstresses; the spiritual lives of people who were enslaved; the cultural assumptions of colonizers; the intimate relationships of families, to name only a few. Even the telling of history has a historical dimension, since historical interpretations change over time, and historians often disagree about exactly how things happened and why.

The variety of sources through which we understand history can encompass the full range of human expression as well—written documents, clothing, household items, artwork, advertisements, songs, buildings and public monuments, among others. By studying primary materials and divergent interpretations of history, students acquire and develop analytical and expository skills.

The study of history affords many additional benefits. It expands and enriches our understanding of the diversity of human lives over time across such boundaries as gender, culture, class, race, age, region, and religion. It helps us think about how and why the world we know came to be and about our own places in it. History students learn about the past and develop skills in and beyond the classroom. They engage in community-based learning, conduct independent research projects, complete summer internships, and study abroad.

Our graduates have gone on to careers in banking, business, communications, education, finance, government, information technology, journalism, law, medicine, politics, public health, public history, and numerous other fields. The history major is excellent preparation for anything that requires the ability to analyze, problem-solve, and communicate.

Mathematics, computer science, cybersecurity, data science, and statistics—distinct programs that share a single home at St. Lawrence—are each deeply rooted in the Liberal Arts. Within each of these majors, introductory courses foster the critical thinking, reasoning, and problem-solving skills necessary for all disciplines while upper-level courses sharpen these skills and introduce students to the deeper world of the majors.

At St. Lawrence, you’ll get great hands-on experience through courses and research opportunities with classmates and professors. Our department emphasizes conceptual learning, allowing students to transfer the skills they learn in one discipline to another, creating well-rounded problem solvers. The five disciplines have many points of intersection, so it is not uncommon for students to concentrate in more than one of our disciplines through major/minor combinations.

Upon completion of their degree, our majors are prepared to either go on to graduate school or into the work-force. Graduates have pursued advanced degrees in each of our five majors, along with related fields like engineering, finance, and business. In the work force, students are prepared for a wide variety of careers; recent examples include medical research, financial management, software development, information technology, actuarial science, and sports analytics. The skills obtained by studying mathematics, computer science, cybersecurity, data science or statistics are utilized in almost any career-field, making the employment opportunities numerous.

All the languages offered in the Department of World Languages, Cultures and Media are key components of some of St. Lawrence’s nearly two dozen international study programs.

Laurentians who have studied a foreign language - or more than one - are well-positioned to excel in international business, diplomacy, development, and education.

Music is both an art, engaging the creative impulse, and a science, involving analytical thinking. That makes it an ideal liberal arts major. At St. Lawrence, we emphasize the relation between making and studying music. Here you’ll develop a worldview of music by learning how to create and perform a wide range of musics and by studying a variety of social and technological contexts for music-making.

We welcome all students regardless of background. Ensembles and private lessons are available to everyone.

Music majors have gone into education, music video production, music journalism, and sales and promotional careers related to music; others have charted careers as performers or pursued graduate study. Whether you’re interested in pursuing a major or just keeping music a part of your life during your time at St. Lawrence, we think you’ll find a good home here.

According to their website," Nature Up North is a community-based organization based at St. Lawrence University whose mission is to foster a deeper sense of appreciation for, and connection to, the North Country environment and in doing so to create a bioregionally literate community that is committed to protecting the wild things and wild places that define this place we call home. The goal of Nature Up North is to use technology to encourage and enhance outdoor experiential learning. In a world increasingly dominated by technology and defined by a growing sense of apathy toward the natural world, Nature Up North seeks to build an environmental community in northern New York using the technological tools with which people are most familiar. Using web-based technology, Nature Up North enables sharing of experiences and observations in nature through science, art, photography or writing. We seek to foster connections between the North Country landscape, the people who inhabit it, and the inextricable connections between the two."

A major in Performance and Communication Arts will give you the tools to better understand and communicate with others, personally, professionally, and socially.

Theatre studies engage students in critical inquiry into previous performances and previous performance texts, as well as artistic engagement with the craft of producing original texts and performances. Performance studies, a broader term, includes theatre studies, but also encompasses a broader array of performance behaviors, including (among others) the performance of gender, the performance of self in everyday life, the performance of texts other than plays, ritual performances, and political performances, both mainstream and activist.

Rhetorical studies focus on the use of symbols to alter attitudes and induce others to act in a particular manner, and students engaged in rhetorical studies are challenged to critically examine previous attempts at persuasion, as well as to creatively enter into the production of original persuasive messages. Communication studies, a broader term, includes rhetorical studies, but also encompasses a broader array of communication behaviors in a broader variety of contexts, including among others interpersonal communication, small group communication, and intercultural communication.

The department's major is designed to enable students to pursue their interests passionately and in-depth. However, we are also committed to a philosophy that emphasizes both depth and breadth of study and, accordingly, the curriculum requires majors to enroll in courses that span the various areas of inquiry. Thus, majors explore the rhetorical and communicative dimensions of performance and the performative dimensions of rhetoric and communication.

When you study philosophy, you enter a new way of thinking about yourself and the world. Our degree program offers the opportunity to examine the deep questions of human existence, such as:

What does it mean to live a good life?
How should a person live?
Are we free?
What is the self?
What is the nature of reality?
How are individual and community related?
What is justice, and can we create a truly just society?
How should humans interact with the natural world?
What is knowledge?
What can be known and when do we have good reason for our beliefs?
Through examining such questions, you’ll develop creativity and critical thinking skills. Many employers like to hire philosophy majors because they have a reputation for being flexible, clear thinkers and good writers. Philosophy combines well with all other majors, so you can study philosophy and whatever else interests you.

That’s how we’d describe our commitment to sustainability. Nestled in the shadows of the Adirondack hills, we owe so much of our adventurous spirit to our natural surroundings. We take our responsibility to preserve and protect our home seriously and it resonates in every aspect of campus life—from our campus buildings to dining to academic programming.

When you venture out into the world after graduation, you’ll make decisions with the wellness of our planet in mind.

At St. Lawrence, we believe your liberal arts education—no matter what you choose to study—holds the key to solving environmental questions that are at the heart of some of today's greatest shared challenges. That's why we've launched our brand-new Center for the Environment.

Combining our existing programs with innovative new initiatives, our Center for the Environment expands on decades of research, teaching, and experiential opportunities for students, and spans the globe—from our beautiful 1,000-acre green campus in the heart of the North Country to our living/learning compound in Nairobi, Kenya.
