From the Institution

Syracuse University is a private research university that advances knowledge to drive breakthrough discoveries and breakout leadership. The depth and breadth of the university's residential, online and hybrid program offerings are a testament to its enduring strength, with more than 200 majors and 100 minors, including a number of online degree programs, offered through 13 schools and colleges. Our collection of customizable majors and interdisciplinary academic pathways close the gap between education and action, so students can take on the world. We connect people, perspectives, and practices to solve interconnected challenges with interdisciplinary approaches. We are a powerful community that moves ideas, individuals and impact beyond what's possible. The scope of our university is a testament to its strengths: A pioneering history dating to 1870; over 14,000 undergraduates and almost 7,000 graduate and law students; more than a quarter million alumni in 170+ countries; a student population from all 50 U.S. states and over 90 countries. With a whole-student approach, the state-of-the-art Barnes Center at The Arch brings together health and recreation services in an integrated approach to wellness. With a focus on the student experience, the Campus Framework includes upgrades to residence halls, classrooms and academic facilities, as well as to the student center, to improve technology and accessibility. The replacement of the iconic inflatable domed roof on the athletic stadium is just one part of a campus transformation that promises to create a new stadium experience for students, faculty, staff, alumni and fans alike. Syracuse University has earned a reputation as the best university for veterans and military-connected students, who make up more than five percent of the student body. The home of the National Veterans Resource Center (NVRC) and the Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF), the University offers unique programs, services and research dedicated to advancing the social and economic well-being of the nation's veterans and their families on the campus of Syracuse University and beyond.
