Campus Life
Outside the classroom but inside the gate.
Unlike many other metropolitan colleges and universities,
Columbia enjoys the luxury of being a residential campus.
Thousands of the smartest, most-interesting and most motivated
young people from across the country and around the world
live and learn together in one community.
Student Organizations & Activities
Graduate students can participate in University-affiliated organizations and activities. As a Columbia University student, you can participate in and enjoy hundreds of diverse social, religious, cultural, academic, athletic, political, literary, professional, public-service and other organizations. At SEAS, graduate students are encouraged to become active members of the Engineering Graduate Student Council (EGSC). The EGSC is a newly recognized group that consists of representatives from each of the nine academic departments at SEAS. The objectives of the EGSC are to foster interaction among graduate engineering students, to serve as a voice for graduate engineering students, and to sponsor social and education events of interest to the graduate engineering community.
