School Statement
Why did a recent book on international education call Dickinson
"perhaps the most internationally minded" college in the United States?
Because of the college's 35 international programs abroad and the way
in which a global awareness is furthered throughout the curriculum.
Dickinson faculty teach students to cross boundaries between academic
disciplines and to engage the wider world. Backed by a network of
alumni accomplishment, a Dickinson graduate ventures into the work
world with an education that translates into a competitive edge and a
mandate to lead and make a difference. This was articulated in
Dickinson's 1783 charter and remains essential to the college's mission
today.
