Centers of Distinction fuel interdisciplinary study at Hiram.

They have added new degree and certificate programs, seminars, competitions, workshops and internships. They provide, in essence, an education on steroids. Through Centers, students from any major can:

  • Develop plans for new businesses and social ventures – and start running them
  • Master Organic Chemistry or Music Theory while training in Hospice
  • Travel to Washington to interact directly with key leaders developing our domestic and foreign policy
  • Partner with faculty and staff to establish Hiram's Sustainability Goals
  • Teach Genomics to high schoolers, while taking on their own research project
  • Edit and publish a professional literary journal
  • Become a campus leader in a service partnership within our community

Centers of Distinction offer the opportunity to know, to do, to dare.
