About
Founded in 1887 as the first all-graduate institution in the United States, Clark University is a small research + liberal arts university with a legacy of innovation. Modern rocketry, the birth control pill, and wind chill factor were all developed here, and even today, 100% of students have access to research and experiential learning opportunities. Our relationship to the city of Worcester, Massachusetts, allows Clarkies to get deeply involved in the community and live out our motto — "Challenge Convention. Change Our World."
