Ezra Cornell, one of the founders of Cornell University, once said, “I would found an institution where any person can find instruction in any study.” In keeping with this dynamic vision, Cornell students immerse themselves in both the liberal and the practical/applied arts and sciences. This rich complement of studies is at the heart of the Cornell academic experience. From business to electrical engineering, from American history to hotel management, at Cornell students have the freedom to explore and study what interests them most. They live and learn amongst the more than 14,000 undergraduates from across the U.S. and 120 countries around the world.
