History
Saint Michael's is a Catholic college founded by the Society of Saint Edmund in 1904. Their guiding principles of education, justice, and service to the poor are at the heart of the Saint Michael's experience.
Education
Choose from more than 40 majors; each is grounded in a meaningful liberal studies curriculum. That means you’re going to learn about our world, past, present and future. You’ll study things you’ll need four years from now, and things you’ll recall 20 years from now. You’ll critically examine issues, solve abstract and concrete problems, and think for yourself, while keeping others in mind.
Research
Getting involved in a research project with a faculty member can be a highlight of your Saint Michael's education. Joining forces with a professor means you'll work closely with a mentor. Plus, you'll gain essential experience that will strengthen your resume and graduate school applications.
