Simmons Students Dive Right In...
Whether you already know your major in college or are undecided, one thing is certain: the best academic programs get better when you can apply what you learn in the classroom to real-world work, research, or travel experiences. Such experiential learning is not new; at Simmons, it's been considered common sense for more than 100 years.
Sometimes the best way to truly learn something is to experience it. Dive right in and test the waters. At Simmons, we regard this strategy as putting theory to work.
Academics at Simmons go beyond the classroom the moment you step onto campus. One hundred percent of Simmons students participate in internships, independent or scientific research, or clinical placements.
View the information below for a sample of internships and other ways Simmons students mix theory with practice. In so doing, they gain skills, confidence, and perspective — valuable tools for today's fast-changing world.
