What's unique about your campus?

Marissa

The professors are very helpful,you just have to get over any fear of approaching them. They have been extremely helpful, in explaining a topic again so that you are able to understand it better.

Katarina

My school is extremely research-focused. When I first enrolled two years ago, I underestimated the importance of this feature to the expansion of knowledge, innovation, and the continuation of education. Now that I am an upperclassman and have engaged in some independent, anthropological research of my own, I realize how critical it is to the academic experience and growth as a scholar. The best thing about SUNY at Albany is the availability of research opportunities and the resources to carry out such investigations. Incredible opportunities can be found here when one simply takes the initiative to look for them.
