Montclair State University
At Montclair, we encourage students to dream big, to imagine the future and to ask “How can I become the person I need to be in order to make the world the place where I want to live?” Here, you’ll find everything you need to rise to the level of your ambitions – and beyond. Whether volunteering locally or conducting research that helps serve the greater community, our students are making a difference in the lives of others.”
We’ve spent more than a century building a space for discovery, innovation and exploration. 13 colleges and schools. 300 doctoral, master’s and baccalaureate programs. 1,800 dedicated faculty. 22,000 like-minded student scholars. And a Carnegie Research Doctoral University designation that underscores our passion for finding answers to the world’s biggest questions so we can make our world a better place.
As part of Montclair, Bloomfield College of Montclair State University will continue to provide a transformative educational experience in a small, inclusive, supportive setting with the resources of a doctoral research university.
