Celebrating Exploration
We acknowledge—and honor—those students who enter college with an open mind. We don’t use the term “undecided” to describe students and our students don’t “declare” a major. Juniata students, together with two faculty advisers, design their educations by identifying academic areas of interest which then becomes that student’s Program of Emphasis, their POE. The POE is a vigorous, challenging, yet fluid plan of educational action that enables students to evolve their thinking and align their interests with emerging (or traditional) career opportunities.

Study Abroad
Our students travel across the world where they conduct important research, use the universal language of music to connect with others, and assist doctors, farmers, and others during service learning trips. We welcome visiting scholars and students from 38 states in the U.S. and 36 countries around the world, and these students inform, educate, and expand the worldview of all of us who live and learn together.

Juniata Scholars Program
The Juniata Scholars Program offers students the chance to enhance their educational and leadership skills through mentorship and community support. Focused on future opportunities, the program encourages participants to look beyond immediate academic goals toward career-enhancing experiences like summer research, internships, study abroad, and prestigious fellowships. It aims to proactively support your journey as you become an impactful intellectual leader on campus and beyond.
