About
History
Mount Saint Mary College was founded by the Sisters of Saint Dominic in 1959, but the Mount has been an academic presence here in Newburgh since 1883. The college's roots in education, and in the training of educators, go even further back to the 13th century and Saint Dominic.
Education
We offer our students an affordable liberal arts education with strong academic undergraduate programs and three graduate programs. Our degree programs in business, education, the health professions, media studies, and the social sciences are linked to high career growth fields. Mount students excel in their chosen fields by selecting internships and study abroad experiences that add dimension and value to their education.
Research
Mount Saint Mary College offers its students many opportunities to be involved in scholarly activities and field research. These include contributions to a faculty member’s ongoing research efforts or independent projects initiated by students and guided by faculty mentorship.
Our students have published and presented at conferences around the country, and even the world! These accomplishments provide many advantages for students seeking post-graduate employment opportunities and for students applying for acceptance into graduate programs, where undergraduate research is increasingly valued.
Career
The Mount's Career Center is one of the college's most successful student and alumni support programs.
Mount graduates commonly credit the Career Center for providing powerful, proven, and practical tools that they use to shape and polish their post-graduate portfolios. More than just a student program, the center provides life-long tools for success and advancement for students and alumni.
