A Fairfield Education
Living and Learning at Fairfield
We’re Fairfield University. We’re a Catholic, Jesuit
university, rooted in one of the world’s oldest
intellectual and spiritual traditions. We educate
the whole person – body, mind, and spirit.
Our students benefit from a core liberal arts
curriculum – one of the most comprehensive in the
country – combined with exceptional professional
preparation. Our faculty are more than teachers –
they are advisors and mentors.
We’re located on a stunning campus on the
Connecticut coast, an hour from New York City,
with exciting internship, study abroad, and research
opportunities available to all undergraduates. Our
distinctive student developmental model offers a
unique approach to integrated learning through
community involvement, vocational exploration, civic
engagement, and discernment.
