Academics


At Concordia, the world is your classroom. Our globally focused curriculum integrates our academic offerings with one of the best study abroad programs in the country, giving you an understanding of language, culture and history that will help make you a confident and responsible global citizen.

Whether you want to make a difference by studying medicine or law, building sustainable communities or ethical businesses, or creating works of music or art, Concordia’s 78 majors, including 18 honors majors, will get you on your way. And if you’re not sure which academic path makes the best use of your talents, we’ll help you find it.

We also offer 12 preprofessional programs in fields such as medicine, law, engineering, and dentistry that will give you a jump on graduate school. Concordia graduates have achieved an 88 percent acceptance rate into medical school (in the past 10 years surveyed) and 93 percent of our applicants get into law school.

Our top-notch professors are not only dedicated, engaging teachers, but also they’ll be your research partners for exciting faculty-student projects.

And through Concordia’s internship and co-op program, you can get hands-on experience working as a forensic crime lab assistant, a nurse’s assistant in one of three regional medical centers, or even a junior programmer for Microsoft. Concordia students land more than 400 internships a year across the country and around the globe.

More than anything, a Concordia education is individualized for your success. With a student-faculty ratio of 15:1 and 83 percent of classes with fewer than 30 students, you’ll never get lost in the shuffle. We’ll help you find your passion and guide you to a rewarding and exciting career.

We invite you to learn more about who studies at Concordia, all of our unique learning opportunities and Concordia’s commitment to integrating intellect and faith.
