Academic Programs

Brandeis University is a rare combination of a liberal arts college and a global research university. As a research university, we attract faculty who are leading scholars, scientists and creative artists working at the forefront of their disciplines and interdisciplinary fields. But like a liberal arts college, we are small enough for students to work directly with faculty at all levels of study, from the introductory to the advanced.
