CAYUGA INSPIRES YOU TO GROW

Consistent with our desire to provide an environment that facilitates learning, Cayuga’s academic programs are grouped in schools that offer students the opportunity to work closely with faculty mentors and peers. Schools bring cohesion to academic programs, enabling students to bond and form friendships that last a lifetime.

Cayuga Community College provides a variety of educational opportunities that allow students to “learn by doing,” connecting classroom content with real-world situations and reflecting on the experience. As a result, students at Cayuga obtain a deeper understanding of their discipline, are more prepared for service and leadership in their careers and communities, and develop critical thinking skills. Cayuga is student-oriented: faculty members help students learn by emphasizing active, collaborative student learning techniques.
