Widely celebrated for their teaching excellence and innovative research, the College's professors have created an intellectual experience that challenges students' academic curosity.  Students explore a rich array of learning opportunities, from conducting their own research to traveling and studying abroad. 

Since its founding in 1770, the College of Charleston has offered a first-rate liberal arts and sciences education.  This was as true for students learning Latin and Greek in the eighteenth century as it is for those majoring in biochemistry, business administration, and computer science today.  As concerns of society have changed, so have the College's course offerings.  Yet the educational standards that have existed for more than 200 years - providing a challenging, individualized, and vibrant learning experience - remain the same.
