Personal. Rigorous. Connected. A Place Like No Other.

Clarkson graduates are the leaders in demand. One in six is already a CEO or VP of a company.  The Clarkson Gene begins with enterprising students, faculty and staff in demand who choose to come to a place like no other. 

We choose to be a small technological university for undergraduates which offers select graduate programs in signature areas of academic excellence. Our choice to be small and focused allows us all to develop the kinds of personal relationships that matter in life and establish an education with relevance to the world’s pressing issues.  Learn more: Visit an Admission Open House, request information, or review faculty and staff positions that are open now.

We build lifetime connections.  See our calendar of events for an activity near you or for things you might like.

We live and learn in a rural college town that enjoys the resplendent backyard of the Adirondacks and we sojourn to international communities to enrich our global perspective.

We choose to question the status quo, push the limits of what is known and apply ingenuity to develop fresh solutions to real-world challenges.  Virtually every major breakthrough in engineering, science, music, art, medicine and business was because somebody believed in a better way.
