At Principia, we recognize every student as infinitely capable and divinely whole.
The word “center” suggests a whole. Your center is also an emotional and spiritual equilibrium: a gravitational mean that keeps you grounded, steady, and true to yourself. At Principia College, your center is the core from which your infinite capability radiates.
Are you ready to take on an exciting career in a new area of human enterprise? Are you ready to join one of the world’s leading companies—or create your own?
Our graduates are intrapreneurs, entrepreneurs, founders, analysts, and innovators. We foster creativity by encouraging intradisciplinary collaboration, promoting academic curiosity, and problem-solving leadership, with an innovative approach.
Here’s to the changemakers, the peacekeepers, the consensus-builders, and the globally minded.
We investigate the confluence of ideas, philosophies, and issues that impact and influence today’s—and tomorrow’s—world. Our students develop problem-solving, critical thinking, collaboration, and intercultural skills to provide service through areas such as law, policy, mediation, teaching, counseling, and nonprofit work.
Whether you’re committed to making or minimizing your mark on the world, we can provide the tools for success.
Driven by the urgent need to address environmental degradation, biodiversity loss, climate change, and social inequity, we integrate Sustainability, Ecology, Ecosystem Management, and Chemistry to explore the interconnections between natural systems and human societies to foster a more resilient and sustainable future.
From intrapersonal examination to interpersonal communication, whether deriving individual meaning or driving mass understanding, our Center is about achieving understanding.
Students learn the power of narratives to help understand themselves, where they come from, and where they’re going. Our graduates are equipped with the tools to make sense of the world through a knowledge of societies, worldviews, and effective communication.
For the dreamers, the makers, and those with a unique viewpoint.
Exploring the creative landscape—be it on canvas, a stage, through a melody, or within one’s own artistic spirit—our students develop, practice, perform, and share their talent and creative spark with the world.
