The non-sectarian University is comprised of the privately endowed College of Business, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and the New York State College of Ceramics (School of Art and Design and the Inamori School of Engineering). Bachelor's, master's, doctoral degrees, as well as the certificate of advanced study are awarded as the culmination of Alfred University's academic and professional programs.
