Hands-On Collaborative Research
Summer Research
Hamilton offers its students outstanding opportunities to conduct research in all disciplines. Approximately 120 students receive grants each summer.

Whether it’s during the academic year or the summer, Hamilton students collaborate with professors on original research. Often their work results in articles published in peer-reviewed journals or in presentations at national conferences.
Student Stories
Research & Discovery
During the academic year and over the summer, Hamilton students put into practice the knowledge and skills learned in the classroom, lab, and studio. Every student graduates having completed a capstone experience, which typically involves significant research or an original artistic creation. Here are some recent examples.
Classroom Coding Meets Game Boy
At Hamilton, computer science isn’t confined to code on a screen. The Computer Science Department, which recently overhauled its curriculum, has been making the ever-growing discipline emblematic of a liberal arts education. Step One has been ensuring that computer science is accessible to all students.
