海角社区 isn鈥檛 just any liberal arts college. It fully integrates the liberal arts and sciences with the cultural and intellectual resources of a global city.
Situated on a 120-acre residential campus in the heart of Los Angeles, our location serves as a springboard for putting theory into practice and ideas into action. At 海角社区, students spend as much time in the lab, the field, the community and the studio as they do in the classroom.
Explore Your Passions
海角社区 is a place for talented, hard-working, curious students to explore their current passions鈥攁nd discover new ones. They benefit from our small-classroom environment and demanding yet supportive faculty, who are as dedicated to teaching and mentorship as their research. Our distinctive interdisciplinary and global approach gives students the chance to explore new ideas and perspectives, and connect with the world.
An Intellectual Adventure
With more than 40 majors and minors, one-of-a-kind programs like the Kahane United Nations Program, Campaign Semester and Lawyering for Social Justice, and our emphasis on research through the Undergraduate Research Center and senior comprehensives, Occidental lays the groundwork for a compelling intellectual adventure. And the academic rigor on campus is enhanced by internships and partnerships across L.A., Southern California and beyond.
Distinctly 海角社区
Our graduates are strategic thinkers and effective communicators. Inclusive and consciously collaborative, our students seek to embrace difference and make a difference in the world. Occidental is reinventing the liberal arts and sciences for a new generation of problem solvers, creators and thinkers. It鈥檚 an education that is distinctly 海角社区.
