Special Features: Brooklyn College is among our nation’s elite public colleges. The College’s academic programs and stellar faculty have been applauded by prominent college guides as being on par with Ivy League institutions, along with its many internship, travel abroad, and research opportunities, and consistently ranked by the Princeton Review as among the nation’s “best value colleges” as well as its most beautiful. Brooklyn’s M.F.A. Creative Writing Program was recently rated #15 nationally, and its School of Education is rated as one of the top 20 in the nation. The excellence of its programs, the quality of its faculty, and its affordable tuition give Brooklyn College students’ the edge they need to succeed. Campus facilities are state-of-the-art. The library is the largest, most technologically advanced CUNY facility of its kind, with an extensive array of online reference resources available from off-campus.
The College’s recently opened West Quad Center has state-of-the-art physical education and athletic facilities, including a swimming pool, competition and practice gymnasiums, racquetball courts, a fitness center, and teaching and research labs. It also consolidates student services offices, along with a one-stop services center to maximize convenient access to transactions and information. Construction will begin in summer 2010 on a new $50-million center for the performing arts, which will serve the Conservatory of Music, the Department of Theater and related disciplines. In the coming years, the College will also build a new and expanded, technologically advanced science complex. Research centers include solid-state, solar energy, and nuclear physics laboratories. Other major facilities are an outpatient Speech and Hearing Center, the H. Wiley Hitchcock Institute for Studies in American Music, a professional performing arts center, and sophisticated television and radio production centers.
Brooklyn College’s handsome, twenty-six-acre campus of broad lawns and Georgian-style buildings is located in a quiet, residential neighborhood within easy reach of Manhattan via public transportation. Assistantships, fellowships, and scholarships in all academic areas are available to qualified students. The Magner Center for Career Development and Internships facilitates Web-based job searches through the CUNY Metro job bank and offers a full range of career services.
