It Starts With a Hypothesis

Independent research and collaborative projects. Experiments and inventions. Artistic creations and performances. Trial and error. Risks, rewards. Data, lots of data.

You will find these scholarly and creative pursuits in many forms at Adelphi. Undergraduate students gain career-boosting experience as research assistants in faculty labs and, unlike many other universities, they’re also encouraged to embark on projects of their own. Master’s and doctoral candidates are drawn to Adelphi for its reputation of innovative graduate-level research—with personal support from distinguished faculty in small, supportive classes.

And our faculty—the heart of Adelphi—keep the spirit of discovery alive in their labs and studios, in fields and forests, and anywhere a big question might lead.
