Curriculum
No matter what discipline you pursue, you'll look at it from every angle, connecting
different modes of thinking and unrelated ideas. Choose a major, combine interests,
or forge your own path altogether.
Campus
With award-winning dining and dorms, the perfect college town, and 1,000 acres of
natural beauty – there’s a lot of ground to cover. But, like any home, our campus
is both a comfortable place to return to and a launchpad for exploring the world around
you.
Community
Welcome to a place thriving with individual expressions, and a unique setting where
they all work together. With hundreds of student-run clubs, including dozens of sustainability,
health, and wellness programs–you’re invited to explore your unexpected.
Careers
No matter what you’re meant to be, do, or inspire, Skidmore is the start of your path
to a life of purpose. Here, you’ll find personalized, on-campus resources to explore
what’s possible, define your vision, and jump-start your life’s work.
SUSTAINABILITY
It's much more than "going green."
We’re completely committed to environmental action. From our own solar field and 29 buildings with geothermal heating and cooling, to student-run composting, gardens, and more–we’re doing it ourselves so our ecosystems, and those beyond them, can reap immediate benefits.

’17
“Don't be afraid of unconventional career paths. Just because most of your class, friends or family work in a certain industry does not mean you have to. Combining your interests is easier than you might think. If you work hard and put yourself out there, you'll meet the right people to help you along the way.”

“I don't like sitting around talking about gear or plug-ins. For me, mastering engineering is all about listening! It is about making decisions and having confidence in the creative direction that you have chosen. So be a good listener.”
Emily Lazar ’93

“The rules of the media industry are ever-changing. It's likely your future job does not exist yet. Embrace disruption and plan for flexibility in response to the unexpected. When making career decisions, think about your next jump. Put yourself in situations that lead to many alternative futures.”
