Binghamton University has built a reputation as a world-class institution with one of the most vibrant research programs in the nation. We are proud to be ranked among the elite public universities in the nation for challenging our students academically, not financially. Our academic culture rivals a first-rate private university - rigorous, collaborative and boldly innovative -- while our campus culture exemplifies the best kind of public university experience: richly diverse students, active social life and deep engagement with the community. Our students, both undergraduate and graduate, work one-on-one with an exceptional faculty that includes Pulitzer Prize winners and groundbreaking scholars.
