Albright College

Features

As a national liberal arts college, Albright College offers 50 programs of undergraduate study ranging from accounting to theatre. About two-thirds of Albright students graduate with a dual or triple major.

 

Albright’s faculty-scholars love to teach and it shows. They put a lot of energy into the classroom to help students succeed. Albright keeps class and lab sizes small so that students have ample opportunity to participate. Learning outside of the traditional classroom is a major focus and important benefit of an Albright education. Through the Experiential Learning and Career Development Center, students will have access to career-building internships, research and creative opportunities, and study abroad or off-campus.
