from Adelphi and partnering institutions, often at an
accelerated pace. Students can pursue joint degrees in
engineering, dentistry, law, environmental studies, optometry,
and physical therapy. Adelphi's Honors College offers an
intellectually challenging curriculum for highly accomplished
and ambitious students. Adelphi's highly regarded Learning
Disabilities Program was one of the first in the country to
blend tutoring with professional counseling to help students
with learning disabilities succeed in college. Adelphi is also
well known for its programs in thater, dance, and music. A
recently completed Fine Arts Building offers state-of-the-art
painting, sculpture, ceramics, and printmaking studios. Other
special programs include a General Studies program for students
who show potential but do not meet the University's admissions
requirements, and an adult undergraduate degree program.
