INTRODUCTION:
The place for opportunity. The world of liberal arts and sciences is about being changed and being driven by ideas. Emmanuel College believes in the value of a liberal arts and sciences education, our proud tradition since 1919. Emmanuel offers opportunities in the pursuit of learning, teaching, exploration and research in more than 25 areas of study. Emmanuel is a place to sharpen your mind, expand your horizons, unleash your potential, embrace your faith, extend your reach, and exceed your expectations.
4 DISTINCTIONS
ENGAGED STUDENTS
Emmanuel students engage in any aspect that can be imagined from connecting with Boston through internships and service projects, to studying their favorite topic abroad…
Engaged in learning and leadership
Student life is a vibrant part of the Emmanuel experience. Most students live on campus in the residence halls and participate in student organizations and/or on athletic teams. A wide variety of academic clubs, honor societies, media organizations, performance groups, leadership teams, and social and special interest organizations are available for student participation. Intercollegiate athletics include NCAA Division III sports for men and women.
Through Emmanuel’s active office of campus ministry, students provide ongoing volunteer service at a number of agencies and institutions in the city of Boston and around the country. Sample service opportunities include elementary after-school programs, the Breast Cancer Walk, alternative spring break programs, Habitat for Humanity, and the peace and justice club.
Students can enrich their educational experiences and broaden their horizons by spending a semester or a year at a university in another country. Emmanuel’s study-abroad coordinator helps students decide which country and program is right for them, depending on academic and professional goals. Students have spent a semester or year abroad in over five hundred programs in sixty-seven countries. In recent years, Emmanuel students have studied around the world, including studying management in China, education in Australia, art in Italy, and political and economic development in Central America.
Emmanuel students become active members of the community and participate in internships with the city’s most prestigious, cutting-edge businesses and nonprofit organizations. A unique partnership with Merck & Co. Inc., which opened Merck Research Laboratories-Boston on the Emmanuel campus, provides unprecedented opportunities for students.
GREAT TEACHING
Students and teachers are comfortable delving into conversations about the class topic and teachers seem to truly care about the success and understanding of their students’ ultimate future…
Unique critical thinking
With just 1,650 undergraduate students, Emmanuel provides a liberal arts and science education in a small-class atmosphere with personal attention from the faculty. Because professors provide individual attention, students feel important in the classroom. Emmanuel faculty members are both teachers and scholars. Regardless of their field, they all share a deep interest in teaching and in helping students reach their goals. Faculty know their students’ names, and are always willing to meet with students to provide academic assistance, advice, or conversation. The college has ninety-two full-time faculty members, 75 percent of whom have a doctorate or other terminal degree. The student to faculty ratio is fifteen to one.
Emmanuel College offers a variety of special academic opportunities, in addition to the traditional liberal arts and sciences curriculum. These include an honors program, honor societies, pre-law/pre-health professional advisory committees, leadership development programs, a science living-learning community, and a comprehensive career-development program though the Internship and Career Development Office.
Emmanuel and five neighboring colleges—Massachusetts College of Art and Design, Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Simmons College, Wentworth Institute of Technology, and Wheelock College—collaborate as the Colleges of the Fenway. Students can cross-register for courses at no additional cost, attend social events, and use the academic facilities of all six institutions. This gives students from Emmanuel access to resources equal to those of a major university without losing any of the benefits of a small college environment.
Emmanuel offers major programs in seventeen disciplines, along with fourteen minors. Students with multiple interests or talents may design their own major programs, combining two or three subjects to create a major.
In support of student academics, the college’s academic resource center offers peer tutoring, writing assistance, language partners, and academic counseling.
Major Programs: American Studies, Art, Art Therapy, Biology, Biochemistry, Biostatistics, Chemistry, Education (Elementary, Secondary), English (Communication, Media and Cultural Studies, Literature, Writing and Literature), Environmental Science, Foreign Languages, Global Studies and International Affairs, Graphic Design and Technology, History, Individualized Major, Management, Mathematics, Neuroscience, Political Science, Psychology (General/Experimental, Counseling and Health, Developmental), Sociology, Spanish, Studio Art
Minor Programs: Art History, Biochemistry, Catholic Studies, Digital Photography, Economics, Forensic Science, Gender and Women’s Studies, Health Care, Information Technology, Latin American Studies, Organizational Leadership, Performance Arts, Philosophy, Religious Studies, Theater Arts
VIBRANT COMMUNITIES
Encompassed by the vibrant and cosmopolitan city of Boston students have every opportunity and entertainment option available in a big city, but they have a close-knit and welcoming place to come home to at Emmanuel College. It’s the best of both worlds…
Experience a dynamic environment
Emmanuel’s students benefit both from being part of a community of educators and students that works together to enrich the world around them and from the easy access to the rich cultural, historical, and social life in and around Boston.
Students who desire a small, tight-knit academic community in the middle of a big, sprawling city need look no further than Emmanuel. Members of Emmanuel’s small community all seem to know each other in one way or another. As one student said, “I always feel as if I could sit with anyone when I walk into the cafeteria and chat up everyone in the elevator going to class.”
