Strengths of Williams College?

I'm super interested in small liberal arts colleges and I've heard a lot about Williams College. Can someone fill me in on the strong suits of Williams? Do they have excellent programs in mathematics or sciences? It's got to match up with my academic goals, you know?

Williams College is indeed known for its strengths in various academic areas, including mathematics and the sciences. What makes Williams stand out is its tutorial system, which resembles Oxford's and involves intense, individualized instruction. For example, in this system, you’ll often find two students engaging in thoughtful debate with a professor’s guidance, fostering a highly personalized and engaging educational experience.

Additionally, their science programs are supported by state-of-the-art facilities like the new science center and opportunities for research, even at the undergraduate level. If hands-on learning and close faculty interaction are important to you, Williams could be a great fit. Plus, with the liberal arts philosophy, you'll receive a well-rounded education that could complement your STEM focus. Keep exploring and see if their unique approach aligns with what you're looking for!
