The lecture hall on the third floor of Jefferson is a great space for guest speakers and larger classes, like this introductory Biology course.

The first floor of the library is dedicated to our Academic Commons, where students can access help with writing, research, computers/IT, and more.

Above the Academic Commons are four floors of books, media resources, and plenty of quiet study spaces.

The library is named after Robert Hutchings Goddard, a former Clark student and professor famous for inventing the first liquid-fueled rocket. He's known as the "father of modern rocketry." Here is a rocket frame illustrating his design.

All first- and second-year students live on campus. About one third of juniors and half of seniors apply to live in off-campus apartments.

On the first floor you will find a 9 foot billiards table, vending machines, and a multimedia study room with computer terminal and a 52″ flat screen monitor. On the second floor you will find a quiet study room and a laundry center with computer terminal. On the third floor is another quiet study room and a kitchen for residential use.

The Carlson School of Chemistry and Biochemistry has access to state-of-the-art equipment for structure determination and assessment of macromolecular dynamics, structure determination of powder crystalline materials, thermodynamic studies, kinetic studies, electron microscopy, molecular biology, and protein purification. Students can also access a large array of computer workstations to facilitate both sophisticated computations and the visualization of complex biomolecular structures.

98% of Clarkies are employed, enrolled in graduate school, or participating in service activities within six months of graduation. Here, alumni in the sciences come back to share their experiences with current students.

A hub of creative activity on central campus, the Center for Media Arts, Computing, and Design aims to inspire Clarkies’ entrepreneurial thinking and development of innovative technology. It encompasses a new green space and quadrangle, oriented toward Goddard Library. The first floor includes an AR/VR lab, multimedia gallery, makerspace, robotics lab, active learning classroom, and flexible classroom space.

The light-filled lobby will draw Clarkies and visitors into the building, to a space with tiered seating where they can connect. A second-floor incubator space will overlook the lobby, showcasing students at work on innovative projects. Other floors will include a tiered classroom, audio/video production and recording areas, and data science and analytics, network simulation, graphic design, and computer labs.

Clark students and administration broke ground on the Center for Media Arts, Computing, and Design in April 2022.
