Because of the College’s focus on technological innovation and academic exploration across all disciplines, Marist enjoys unique research partnerships with the IBM Corporation, the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Presidential Library, and the Cary Institute for Ecosystem Studies.

As a result of Marist’s blending of problem-solving skills taught through a traditional liberal arts education with specialized, career-focused majors and minors, alumni have excellent employment outcomes in their fields of interest and have been accepted to top graduate programs and medical and law schools around the world. In addition, Marist students have won prestigious fellowships and scholarships, including the Fulbright, Goldwater, Pickering, and Hansard.
