Courses/Curriculum

Pitzer offers a curriculum that embraces the best of both tradition and innovation. The Pitzer education is a rigorous course of study, firmly grounded in the traditions of learning and intellectual debate found at the great colleges and universities of the world. At the same time, we offer our students the opportunity to design, with the assistance of concerned faculty advisers, academic programs that are truly creative and support and enhance individual interests and aspirations. This combination educates for our increasingly complex, global environment — for a world that requires an increasingly diverse range of skills, languages and perspectives.
