| CAMPUS SUMMARY |
 |
The opportunities offered by HMC's undergraduate focus provide its students incredible access to some of the top undergraduate science and engineering faculty in the country. Students enjoy a faculty dedicated to their education. They study and work in facilities that typically surpass those available to undergraduates anywhere in the world!
Regardless of their major, Harvey Mudd students devote one-third of their study to a common technical core in math, physics, biology, chemistry, computing, and engineering design. Another third is devoted to the humanities, the social sciences, and the arts...an emphasis unequaled by any accredited engineering college in the nation. The final third is taken in your major. All students carry out research for at least one year. It is not uncommon for undergraduate students at Harvey Mudd to author or co-author scientific papers published in nationally recognized journals. |

| UNIQUE/SPECIAL PROGRAMS |
|
Harvey Mudd originated the Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science Clinics...small project teams made up of juniors and seniors solve real problems for outside industrial clients. Each year about 40 "blue chip" companies and a number of government agencies sponsor clinic projects.
The Harvey Mudd College campus environment is shaped by an Honor Code that sets a tone of trust and collaboration and minimizes the intense competition which is often the by-product of bringing together exceptionally accomplished individuals. This extraordinary education is offered within the larger collaborative context of Harvey Mudd's affiliation with neighboring colleges through the Claremont Colleges Consortium, an affiliation which broadens both academic and social opportunities for its students.
The Consortium was the first of its kind established in the United States, and offers students the expansive physical facilities and wide selection of courses, faculty, student services and extracurricular activities of a university; and the small classes and personalized education of a small private college. The Consortium includes:
Pomona College (established 1887), Claremont Graduate University (1925), Scripps College (1926), Claremont McKenna College (1946), Pitzer College (1963) and the Keck Graduate Institute of Applied Life Science (1997). |
