Beginning in your first year, you can get involved in research, experiential learning, internships, volunteer opportunities and more. UB's Project Portal will easily connect you to mentored opportunities to pursue your passion and build your skills.

⭐ 13:1 Student Faculty Ratio

As you move through your major, classes get smaller and more specialized to your discipline. With a 13:1 student-faculty ratio, you'll get personalized attention from your instructors.

📚 UB Curriculum

The UB Curriculum is our innovative, student-centered approach to general education for all undergraduates. The UB Curriculum makes general education a purposeful program with a beginning and an end, where every step of the journey builds on the last, readying graduates for everything to come.

Every student takes the UB Seminar in their first semester. UB Seminar courses are small, taught by distinguished faculty and focus on really unique topics like: "Handling Monsters: A Handbook," "Art & Madness," "Media and Moral Panic," and "Why Have Wealth?"
