On and Around Campus
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 and 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.
