Ranked the #1 private, four-year college in the nation for upward economic mobility by Harvard University’s Opportunity Insights, Pace University provides a transformative education for its diverse students—academically, professionally, and socioeconomically. Pace prepares students to become leaders in their fields by providing an education that combines exceptional academics with real-world experiences including internships, research, clinicals, civic engagement, and study abroad.
At the core of a Pace education is a strong foundation in the liberal arts and sciences with an emphasis on the combination of theory and practice. More than 50 cutting-edge centers, institutes, labs, and clinics, including the NYC Design Factory, Entrepreneurship Lab, Environmental Policy Clinic, Cybersecurity Education and Research Lab, Immigration Justice Clinic, and Health Care Simulation Labs serve as a training ground for future leaders. One of the fastest-growing and most competitive programs at the University is the performing arts, with the Pace School of Performing Arts for undergraduates ranked among the top programs in the country and The Actors Studio Drama School for graduates recognized by many as the home of the Emmy Award-winning television show Inside the Actors Studio. The University’s environmental law program has long been recognized as a leading program and was ranked #1 by U.S. News & World Report in 2019.
Pace combines the benefits and resources of a large university with the personalized attention and focus associated with a small college, with an average class size of only 20 students and a 14:1 student to faculty ratio. Academic experiences at Pace emphasize teaching from both a practical and theoretical perspective, drawing on the expertise of full-time and adjunct faculty members who balance academic preparation with professional experience to bring a unique dynamic to the classroom. Research is a cornerstone of the Pace educational experience and in FY2019, Pace received more than $9.4 million in research grant funding. Our faculty’s commitment to intellectual discourse and research is surpassed only by their desire to help students realize their dreams.
Students could access to 50,000+ jobs and internships and 1,000+ employers who hire Pace students as interns. With one of the largest internship programs of any college in the New York metropolitan area, Pace provides you with the tools, guidance, and network to take you from the classroom to the real world.
