Clarkson Spotlights
"I’m excited to start my freshman year, to meet people, and start learning!" Engineering, business studies, health, and sciences — as a Clarkson freshman, which path would excite you the most?
Eniya Eudell '27“Being a 'Woman at Full SPEED (Student Projects for Engineering Experience and Design)' is exhilarating. Here at Clarkson they gave me the tools and the opportunities to find the people who would support me and I was able to use those programs for my benefit."
- Carolyne Shultes '24, BS in Chemical Engineering"I've always been interested in fisheries and I love being on the water. When I heard they were looking for a graduate student with experience similar to mine, it sounded like a good fit. I was lucky enough to be accepted into this research project."

Academics and Research Research Focus AreasONE CLARKSON THREE LOCATIONS
Golden Knights ignite connections across fields, industries, and cultures at our three physical campus locations in New York State.
View Our LocationsMain Campus
Set within 640 wooded and waterfront acres, our main campus is where our college students experience everything Clarkson has to offer: residence halls, academic buildings, athletic facilities, state-of-the-art research centers, and more.
Beacon Institute
The Beacon Institute for Rivers and Estuaries is Clarkson’s Hudson Valley campus. This state-of-the-art technical facility just north of New York City serves as an introduction to the surrounding park and as a research institute striving to develop more sustainable water solutions that preserve estuaries and other freshwater ecosystems in the state and beyond.
Capital Region Campus
Close to many industries that rely on Clarkson's research and educational opportunities for employees, the Capital Region Campus is the headquarters for the Office of Graduate Admissions, which also supports graduate enrollment at the main campus in Potsdam, and offers both in-person and hybrid graduate and certificate programs.
