Eckerd College Inc

Eckerd College, Florida's only national private liberal arts college, offers undergraduate education to 1,800 students from 48 states and 30 countries. We take advantage of our spectacular mile of campus waterfront along the Gulf of Mexico for outdoor laboratories in Biology, Marine Science and Environmental Studies as well as for an impressive array of intramural, club and intercollegiate sports and water recreation. Offerings in the arts and humanities inspire creativity and foster critical thinking and self-awareness.

Every year, a significant number of our students travel with their faculty leaders outside the U.S. to some 40 foreign countries for research and cultural learning, including our own dedicated study centers in China, Latin America and London.

In addition, 1,000 students are enrolled in the Program for Experienced Learners, a bachelor's degree program for adult learners. Eckerd's Leadership Development Institute for executives, Academy of Senior Professionals, Osher Lifelong Learning Institute and Road Scholar program identify the College as a national leader of innovative programs in continuing education and lifelong learning.

Eckerd College on Florida's Gulf Coast
Eckerd College fosters community among students and encourages learning inside and outside the classroom.
Eckerd College faculty help students to "think outside," both literally and figuratively. With a 13:1 student:faculty ratio, learning is personal and collaborative.
Mentoring is a hallmark of an Eckerd education. Faculty take the time to get to know students, discuss their interests and goals, and help to set them on a course for success during college and beyond.
