Susquehanna invites students to participate in a dynamic research environment on campus and beyond.
As early as their first year, students can engage in immersive research opportunities, fostering inquisitive minds through hands-on, real-world experience. Our students work with faculty, peers, community partners and independently to ask important questions and seek answers in thoughtful and innovative ways.
Thanks to opportunities made available through university and donor funding, Susquehanna students can work throughout the academic year or spend their summer honing their professional skills and making an impact in a wide array of fields — from marketing to biology.
Susquehanna allows First-Year students the opportunity to participate in research to begin their experiences sooner.
At the end of each summer, students gather to share their research results and experiences and celebrate hard work.
