CAMPUS SUMMARY
Lawrence University is a nationally
recognized undergraduate college of
the liberal arts and sciences and a
conservatory of music. Lawrence
offers coursework in more than 30
areas and grants the Bachelor of
Arts degree, the Bachelor of Music
degree, and the Bachelor of
Arts/Bachelor of Music double degree
(five-year program).
Chartered in 1847, Lawrence was one
of the first colleges in the United
States to be founded coeducational.
The residential campus of 84 acres
and 52 buildings, nestled between
downtown Appleton and residential
neighborhoods, supports the academic
and extracurricular pursuits of
1,200 students representing nearly
all 50 states and more than 40
countries.
UNIQUE/SPECIAL PROGRAMS
Small
classes -- the average class size is
15 and the student-to-faculty ratio
is 11:1 -- make personal attention
the hallmark of a Lawrence
education. Opportunities for
off-campus study, internships,
student-designed tutorials, and
independent research supplement the
traditional academic curriculum. All
classes, including introductory
courses, are taught by faculty
members, 93 percent of whom hold the
Ph.D. or highest degree in their
field. In addition to offering a
broad academic program, Lawrence
continuously brings world-renowned
scholars, artists, and experts to
the campus to enrich the learning
environment.
Commited to the development of
intellect and talent, the
acquisition of knowledge and
understanding, and the cultivation
of judgement and values, Lawrence
University prepares students for
lives of service, achievement,
leadership, and personal fulfillment
