Princeton University offers advanced degrees spanning 42 academic departments and programs housed within four divisions- Humanities, Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, Engineering. At Princeton University, we believe that the highest levels of research, scholarship, and teaching are obtained only through the combined participation of people with a diversity of viewpoints, backgrounds, and experiences. For this reason, the University welcomes under-represented and socio-economically disadvantaged students and faculty and provides an environment that embraces all races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, backgrounds, and physical abilities. Doctoral education available in all disciplines emphasizes original and independent scholarship, while master's degree programs in architecture, engineering, finance, public affairs and public policy prepare candidates for careers in public life and professional practice.
These programs share a number of distinctive and desirable features:
· A high level of engagement between distinguished faculty and outstanding students.
· A campus environment that fosters a community of scholars.
· A depth of financial support that allows concentration on academics.
· Degree programs with demonstrated success in educating graduates for careers in academia, government, and the non-profit and corporate sectors. Complementing and enriching these degree-granting programs are a wide range of interdisciplinary units that promote intellectual activities and research across departmental and divisional boundaries.
Princeton University’s campus, academic home to more than 2,600 graduate students, 5,000 undergraduates, and 1,100 faculty members, is located midway between New York City and Philadelphia in the town of Princeton, a community of approximately 30,000 in New Jersey.
