Faculty Mentoring

You’ll find that Houghton’s faculty foster a close community. Small class sizes allow you develop meaningful connections with faculty and your classmates. Faculty are partners in your education and you’ll work with them side by side on research projects. They act as your advisor, coaching you towards a future career path or graduate school and caring for your emotional and spiritual growth.

Christ-Centered Education

A Christian liberal arts education exposes you to a variety of content areas while encouraging to grow in your faith. At Houghton, you’ll find a Christ-center community that extends beyond Chapel, to everyday interactions in the classroom, sharing a meal, or passing one another on campus.

Experiential Learning

As part of the math and sciences, you are an active participant in your own learning. Enjoy a lively class environment and labs that grow your technical skills. You’ll find numerous opportunities to perform real-world research. You’ll have the opportunity to conduct, present, and publish peer-reviewed research in collaboration with faculty members. You can also work directly in the field through off-campus study, practicums, internships, and student/faculty research collaboration at the Shannon Summer Research Institute.
