Saint Rose Academics
The College of Saint Rose is accredited by the Board of Regents of the State of
New York and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. Many of our
academic departments hold prestigious additional accreditations including art, business,
communication disorders, music and social work .
The College’s
66 undergraduate programs combine intellectual growth and learning
with career preparation and are built on a foundation of study in the
arts and sciences that create a context for advanced study in the major.
Liberal education courses are characterized by attention to such skills
as writing, critical thinking and information literacy. The College strives
to offer courses, programs and other opportunities (such as study abroad)
that nurture value formation, spiritual development and responsible citizenship
and well as an awareness of and respect for diversity.
The College’s
45 Graduate programs and 12 certificate programs are designed to
move students to advanced levels in their chosen fields. Such specialization involves
quantitative and qualitative increase in knowledge, the ability to critique and
synthesize, and familiarity with the principles, ethical issues and histories of
the chosen disciplines. Students will be asked to conduct and report on original
research and will be challenged to balance their professional development with an
increased awareness of and concern for the needs of society.
The Exploratory Program With so many career choices and options available to you, it's understandable
that you might have difficulty choosing a major. At Saint Rose we won't let you
wander through the halls of academia as "undeclared" or "undecided"—instead,
we will welcome you as one of our
Exploratory Program students. The Exploratory Program is a curriculum designed
to assist you as you make this important decision by providing support and guidance.
You will benefit from workshops at the College's Career Development Center and you
will be assigned an academic advisor who has been specially trained to work with
students just like you—students interested in exploring their academic options.
