Clarkson is a private, national research university and a leader in technological education and sustainable economic development through teaching, research, scholarship, and innovation. Clarkson is the institution of choice for more than 4,600+ enterprising, high-ability undergraduate and graduate students pursuing degrees in 95+ rigorous academic programs of study. Clarkson faculty are on the leading edge of research in signature areas of healthy global solutions for protecting air, water, and habitats; computational and data-enabled discovery; advanced materials development; and next-generation medicine and healthcare. Clarkson produces remarkably effective engineers, scientists, educators, health professionals, business people, and creative leaders who easily engage in what's next. Clarkson does this by creating an exceptionally demanding, boundary-spanning experience in an entrepreneurial community known for its core values, technology-intensive resources, and appreciation of the Adirondack Park just beyond the University's doorstep. With the Golden Knight as the University mascot, students quickly integrate academics and research with their social lives through 200+ campus clubs, fraternities and sororities, D-I and D-III sports, project competition teams, and community service initiatives. This all-in education results in graduates who earn salaries that are among the top 2% in the nation and realize accelerated career growth. One in five alumni already leads as a CEO, senior executive, or owner of a company. #ClarksonIgnite is the University's call-to-action to collide disciplines, spark intellectual curiosity and take on real-world industry and marketplace challenges. In this framework, students and faculty sharpen their entrepreneurial mindset, skill sets, and experiences that are transferable to future careers and research innovations in the rapidly evolving economy. The main campus in Potsdam, New York, and additional graduate programs and research satellites form a corridor that follows the Hudson River from Saranac Lake (in partnership with Trudeau Institute) and Schenectady in the Capital Region to Beacon and New York City. Graduate programs are also offered online. The alumni community is 44,500+ strong and resides in 87 countries around the world. Clarkson's global reach extends even farther through the activities within its schools and its ROTC command, as well as more than 50 international university exchange partners.
