| UNIQUE/SPECIAL PROGRAMS |
 |
The baccalaureate curriculum integrates liberal arts core courses, which allow each student to become familiar with major intellectual disciplines, with career preparation for women of diverse ages and circumstances. Mount Mary builds its academic program around a core curriculum based on the human search for meaning. Through this search, students explore their own response to the question, "What does it mean to be human?" and "What can a person become?"
The College is noted for its talented faculty and student artists whose work is frequently featured in the campus art gallery. Mount Mary is internationally known for its historic costume collection, with garments often featured in national fashion publications.
Many students participate in off-campus practice, internships, field experiences, and community volunteer work which enriches their classroom experience. The value of this combination of excellent academic preparation and practical experience is reflected in the placement rate of Mount Mary graduates. Over 96% percent of our graduates are employed within one year. |
