    Overview

    Since its founding in 1871, Smith College has provided women of high ability and promise an education of uncompromising quality. A world-class faculty of scholars are fully engaged with their students' intellectual development, and an open curriculum encourages each student to explore many fields of knowledge.

    The three concepts that guide Smith's institutional identity are knowledge, community, and generosity. Smith is known for its strong focus on interdisciplinary learning, allowing students to engage deeply with their chosen fields while exploring additional academic interests. A Smith experience is bolstered by an emphasis on leadership, social responsibility, and community engagement. Students are a part of a small, close-knit community of students and faculty committed to social justice, sustainability, and community service. Students frequently and actively participate in local and global volunteer work and advocacy. Top majors are widespread and include Economics, Biological Sciences, Psychology, English Language and Literature, Engineering, History, Government, and Theater.
