Programs

Clarkson University is home to the Center for Advanced Materials Processing (CAMP). CAMP at Clarkson University is dedicated to developing Clarkson's research and educational programs in high-technology materials processing. CAMP's mandate is to develop innovations in advanced materials processing and to transfer this technology to business and industry. The center receives support from the New York State Office of Science, Technology, and Academic Research for research and operating expenses as one of 14 Centers for Advanced Technology (CATs). In addition, CAMP-related work receives several million dollars each year from the federal government and private industry.


Clarkson's 16 (Student Projects for Engineering Experience and Design) teams allow students across all majors to participate in hands on, extracurricular projects. These SPEED teams attend competitions all over the globe with other universities to test their designs and push the bounds of engineering design.


In 2007, U.S. News & World Report’s [1] annual America’s Best Colleges issue ranked Clarkson among the 127 best colleges. Its undergraduate engineering program was recognized as one of the "Best Engineering Programs" whose highest degree is a doctorate[citation needed]. In addition, U.S. News rated Clarkson's School of Business’ Supply Chain Management program the 10th best in the nation[citation needed]. Year 2007 (MMVII) is the current year, a common year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar and the AD/CE era in the 21st century. ... U.S. News & World Report is a weekly newsmagazine. ...

History

The school was founded in 1896, as the Thomas S. Clarkson Memorial School of Technology. In 1913 the name was changed Thomas S.Clarkson Memorial College of Technology, which was used in a shortened version as Clarkson College of Technology or CCT. More many of those early years the entire school was on the “downtown" "campus”. Over the latter half of the 20th century, the college expanded onto the “hill campus” (on the south-west edge of Potsdam) beginning with the dorms known as “the pit”.


On 24 February 1984 the school officially became Clarkson University, although the pep band’s rallying cry at hockey games is still “Let’s Go Tech!”. (The school, and its hockey team, have been informally called the “Tech” since the 1896 founding, and “CCT” is still printed on older school property & equipment.)


As of 2001, almost all academics and housing had moved to the hill campus, although the university still uses the downtown buildings known as Old Snell, and Old Main for administrative functions.


The Clarkson School

The Clarkson School, a special division of Clarkson University, was founded in 1978 as a unique educational opportunity. The School offers students an early entrance opportunity into college, replacing the typical senior year of high school with a year of college. It is one of few college early admission programs in the country that provides a real community living/learning experience on a university campus.


The Clarkson School's Bridging Year is a "bridging year" between high school and college for students who are ready to enter college early. Every year 50 to 80 11th grade students are accepted to The Clarkson School, where they work towards a GED and take college classes. They may also work with their high schools to complete a high school diploma. After they complete the program, they are given the option to enter Clarkson University with all credits from the previous year. The GED, General Educational Development, or General Equivalence Degree Test, is a test that certifies the taker has attained American or Canadian high school-level academic skills. ...


Students in The Clarkson School are fully matriculated undergraduates with freshman status at the University. They take classes with other University students and usually carry a course load of 15 to 18 credits per semester for two semesters. College credits may also be given for college and Advanced Placement courses taken before entering The Clarkson School. Cross-registration at neighboring area colleges and universities can provide additional college credits, particularly in art, music and languages. These credits also appear on an official Clarkson University transcript.


The Clarkson School students are housed in Farrisee House in Price Hall and the typical class size is about 50 students.


The Campus

Clarkson has two distinct campuses, the "downtown" campus and the "hill" campus. During the last 20 years Clarkson has developed almost exclusively on the hill campus. Most students never need to visit the downtown campus since everything a student needs is contained on the hill, excluding the campus store. The last student dormitory (Congdon) located on the downtown campus closed in May 2006. The only buildings remaining in Clarkson’s service at the downtown campus are a few administration buildings, the Army and Air Force ROTC houses, as well as the Pre-PT (Physical Therapy) program. Most other downtown campus buildings have been leased or sold. A typical American college dorm room Another typical not-so-clean college dorm room Watterson Towers, Illinois State University Potomac Hall, second-largest dormitory at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia. ...


PC Magazine and The Princeton Review ranked Clarkson among the top-20 wired colleges in the nation for 2007.[citation needed] “The Top Wired Colleges” honors colleges with the most comprehensive—in terms of size, scope and quality—computing and technology offerings. PC Magazine (or PC Mag) is a computer magazine published biweekly (except in January and July) both in print and online. ... The Princeton Review (TPR) is a for-profit American educational preparation company. ...


The 2007 Princeton Review considers Clarkson to be one of “Best Northeastern Colleges”, albeit with the following caveats: #1 for “This Is a Library?”, #5 for “Least Happy Students”, #6 for “Class Discussions Rare”, and #14 for “Campus Is Tiny, Unsightly, or Both”.
