Make your own way forward.

At Hampshire, you have full ownership over what you want to study and what you want to achieve. You’ll move across disciplines and departments. You’ll be mentored from invested faculty, and you’ll forge something all your own.

Learn differently.

Our model of education is based on transdisciplinary studies— an approach we originally helped inform. Because we believe that questions are best examined from multiple perspectives, you’ll never be siloed into a single department or boxed into a traditional major or minor. The questions you ask will span across the arts, humanities, social inquiry, and the sciences giving you a wildly expansive perspective. Our academic model is radical and unique, helping you see the world in all its complexity and possibility.

It’s never too early to explore your next step. Life is a process, not a linear path. Your purpose will emerge as you experiment, reflect, re-imagine, and experiment again.
