CAMPUS SUMMARY

The opportunities offered by HMC's undergraduate focus provide its students incredible access to some of the top undergraduate science and engineering faculty in the country. Students enjoy a faculty dedicated to their education. They study and work in facilities that typically surpass those available to undergraduates anywhere in the world!

Regardless of their major, Harvey Mudd students devote one-third of their study to a common technical core in math, physics, biology, chemistry, computing, and engineering design. Another third is devoted to the humanities, the social sciences, and the arts...an emphasis unequaled by any accredited engineering college in the nation. The final third is taken in your major. All students carry out research for at least one year. It is not uncommon for undergraduate students at Harvey Mudd to author or co-author scientific papers published in nationally recognized journals.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

HMC is one of the premier math, science and engineering colleges in the nation. We’re also unique because we are a liberal arts college.

We educate engineers, scientists and mathematicians who become leaders in their fields and have a clear understanding of the impact their work has on society.

We operate on an "early in-early out" semester schedule. Classes begin a few days on either side of Labor Day; we have devised a short "fall break" in mid-October, have the traditional days off after Thanksgiving, and usually end classes around the 5th or 10th of December, with a wekk of finals afterwards. Students are away from campus from about the 20th of December until about the 20th of January at which time the spring semester begins. Our spring break occurs in mid-March, classes usually end after the first week of May, and commencement closes the spring semester in mid-May.
