Meet Bucknell
🧭 Meet Bucknell
Bucknell is one of the nation’s preeminent liberal arts universities and Division I schools, offering a world-class learning experience where you’ll be mentored by outstanding, award-winning professors.
Three Colleges, Endless Combinations
With more than 60 majors across three colleges — Arts & Sciences, Engineering and the Freeman College of Management — you can explore many different interests and graduate with an array of in-demand skills. We make it easy to add a second major or a minor if you choose to expand your educational reach.
Research That Matters
At Bucknell, you’ll have the funding and faculty support you need to complete and publish undergraduate research. Perhaps you’ll develop a way to filter carbon out of the air, slowing the rise of global warming. Or uncover a financial trend before anyone else. Or engineer a cheaper way to bring clean water to communities in need. We’ll give you the tools and guidance to make a better world.
Undergraduates First
Our 3,700 students enjoy a low student-faculty ratio (9 to 1) and a campus where high-tech labs far outnumber giant lecture halls. Because we have very few graduate students, our priority is personalized, experiential learning for undergraduates — beginning the day you arrive.
Access for All
Our Journey to Bucknell program seeks out the brightest leaders, learners and innovators and invites them to visit Bucknell and explore our welcoming, world-class campus. The program is designed to introduce high-achieving, traditionally underrepresented high school seniors to Bucknell, including students who identify as African American, Asian American, biracial/multiracial, Latinx, Native American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, first-generation, religiously diverse and/or LGBTQ. We also support students through our optional first-year T.E.A.M. Peer Mentoring Program, Pre-Orientation and mentoring programs for students interested in fields like the sciences and engineering, and our GenFirst!@Bucknell mentorship program for first-generation college students.
