A diverse and evolving collection of collaborations between Sewanee and Yale combines the unique strengths of these two institutions, offering exceptional opportunities for students, faculty, and community partners.
Each year, the Yale Child Study Center (YCSC) in partnership with the Department of Pediatrics offers an 8-week summer internship for rising junior and senior undergraduate students. This research-intensive internship embeds students in projects ranging from basic and applied science to community-based research projects to clinical settings, and incorporating methods including analysis of archived data sets, wet lab techniques, and clinical observations.
Each year, 1-2 Sewanee students accepted into the summer internship program extend their summer research experience into the fall semester of their senior year, as a unique study-away experience.

Sewanee & Yale faculty have collaborated to offer many unique courses, from community-engaged experiences to advanced-level seminars. Disciplines range from psychology and visual art to southern studies and history.

A visit to the Domain (it's what we call our 13,000-acre campus) is the best way to determine if Sewanee is a good fit for you. Once you set foot on campus, spend time with our students and professors, or take a stroll through Abbo's Alley, we are confident that Sewanee will find its way into your heart.
Our small classes mean that your voice will be heard, your contribution will be expected, and your opinion will be listened to (and disagreed with, and challenged, and seen from a different perspective, and pushed in a new direction, and considered—and you know what? Maybe we’re both right. See how it works?).
We're a community where everyone has a place and there's a place for everyone. Group study? We'll bring our notes. Rock climbing? We're geared up and ready. Jam session? Sure, we'll play with you. Whatever you want to do, at Sewanee, you'll never have to go it alone. Unless you need your space. Then, we totally get it.
