Our professors share their knowledge with students and challenge them to develop their skillsets through serious research, experiential opportunities, and internships.

Our varsity athletic teams compete in NCAA Division III and against some of the best in the nation as a member of the Ohio Athletic Conference and Mid-Atlantic Rowing Conference. Marietta has won six national championships and 64 conference titles, including an OAC-record 46 baseball titles.

More than 26,000 living members of The Long Blue Line proudly support their alma mater and help current students gain internships and connections into their chosen industries.
