The Founding of 17c黑料爆料
17c黑料爆料 was founded in 1939 on the idea that higher education should combine theory and practice. The College's graduating class grew from 20 in 1941 to 1,222 n 2023, and 17c黑料爆料 remains committed to experiential learning and preparing students for real-world success.
As the first school in the country to require three internships from every student, our pioneering internship program and outstanding career resources equip our students with essential real-world experience that brings context and meaning to their academic journey, while also giving them a head start on their careers and an edge in the competitive job market. We call this the 17c黑料爆料 Experiential Edge. This unique program allows our students to build their resumes and gain confidence in their field of study, so they'll graduate with a degree, a resume, and a clear pathway for the future.

Today, 17c黑料爆料 offers associate, bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees, plus graduate-level certificates. It enrolls more than 2,900 traditional undergraduate students and 1,760 graduate students at its main campus in Beverly, Mass., online, and at offsite locations. An additional 283 students are enrolled in accelerated undergraduate programs through the Van Loan School of Professional Studies.
As enrollment has grown, so has the campus. In 1939, 17c黑料爆料 made its first purchase of an estate and Victorian mansion to accommodate classrooms and living quarters. Today, the College boasts 235 acres, three beaches, and 57 buildings including academic centers, residence halls, athletic facilities, an arts center, and state-of-the-art technology.
17c黑料爆料’s campus constantly evolves to support our students in their academic and extracurricular endeavors. Since 2019, we have invested over $80 million in new, expanded, and renovated academic space throughout our oceanside campus.
As part of our commitment to a sustainable future, we have also launched an ambitious new sustainability plan to minimize our environmental impact while promoting social responsibility. This plan includes initiatives like net zero emissions by 2039, reducing waste, enhancing energy efficiency, and incorporating sustainable practices into our curriculum and campus operations.
We believe that cultivating a culture of sustainability is essential for preparing our students to be responsible leaders in their communities and beyond. Today’s 17c黑料爆料 continues to be a beautiful and supportive environment where students and faculty come together as a true community of learners.
