Upcoming Events
It's not too late to Study Abroad in the Spring. The deadline for all application materials is October 2.
Welcome to your Junior year at Brandeis University!
As a junior, you start out your year with a major and have the freedom to focus more specifically on your chosen field of study as well as continue to pursue other areas of interest.
- This year is a great opportunity to develop closer relationships with faculty and to strengthen your leadership skills in one of the many clubs or organizations here at Brandeis.
- Along with over 40 % of the junior class, you may choose to spend a semester or an entire academic year studying abroad in one of the over 250 programs offered through our Study Abroad Office. If you study abroad in the fall or stay on campus for the year, be sure to join President Reinharz in the spring when he hosts a reception for the junior class at his historic home in Newton.
- Juniors who do not study abroad will find this year an excellent time to explore career options through internships, volunteer, work or part-time employment.
- If you are thinking of writing an honors thesis in your senior year this is the time to begin planning. Attend an “Is An Honors Thesis In Your Future?” information program. Explore topic ideas, talk with professors in your major field to see who shares your interest in possible topics, visit science labs to discover what research is currently being done and who has openings for students.
We are happy to meet with you to help with academic decisions or problems, help you maneuver through administrative procedures, chat about anything else that is on your mind or just be there to listen.
We wish you much success this year!
