Areas of Study

With support from faculty, you identify one or more areas that spark your curiosity and build a course of study around them. Your work isn’t limited to the classroom, either. You’ll shape your education by connecting what you learn to real-world experiences through Field Work Term and independent projects.

What this means for you:

  • Study what truly interests you
  • Connect coursework with hands-on learning
  • Collaborate closely with faculty advisors in a graduate style way
  • Create an education that grows with you

At Bennington, your education is yours to design that is intentional, flexible, and driven by what matters most to you. With a curriculum that reflects students and faculty interests, Bennington is constantly evolving to create a space for you to learn about the things you care about.
