Lycoming College is a place where students think deeply and act boldly in preparation for careers of significance and lives of meaning. We provide a cutting-edge, 21st-century focused education that immerses students in experiential learning opportunities like internships, fieldwork, student-faculty research, and global study. With more than 100 majors, minors, and programs, you can craft a customized, market-driven degree tailored to your unique interests and career goals.
As a solely undergraduate institution with a student to faculty ratio of just 12:1, Lycoming gives students access to nationally recognized faculty and advanced equipment from day one. Our small class sizes foster workshops, hands-on labs, and discussion-based learning. Additionally, our exclusive Center for Enhanced Academic Experiences acts as a gateway for subject-specific career advising, pre-professional/graduate school guidance, and experiential learning opportunities on a local, national, and global stage. With an endowment among the highest per student in the country, Lycoming gives every individual access to those opportunities. We award more than $32 Million in scholarships and financial aid annually. This financial strength also enables us to continuously invest in premier facilities, attract/retain accomplished faculty, and invite world-renowned scholars to visit and teach.
Innovation and creativity permeate not only our curriculum, but the entire student experience. Living learning communities, an Outdoor Leadership and Education program (with survival skills transferrable far beyond the wild), our Warrior Coffee service-learning enterprise, the Clean Water Institute, and Institute for Management Studies allow students to not only learn their passion, but live it. On campus, the already tight-knit community is strengthened through more than 80 clubs and organizations, as well as 19 NCAA Division III intercollegiate sports teams. It is often said that at Lycoming, it’s not a matter of if you’ll get involved, but how much.
