Juniata College

Juniata College is a private liberal arts college in Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, serving undergraduate and graduate students through a residential academic program rooted in individualized study. Founded in 1876, the college is known for its Program of Emphasis model, which lets students design a course of study around a traditional discipline, an interdisciplinary field, or an individualized focus developed with faculty guidance. Juniata enrolls students on a 110-acre main campus in Huntingdon and also operates a 365-acre environmental field station at Baker-Henry Nature Preserve.

The college’s academic work spans the arts, humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and professional fields, with graduate offerings that include accounting, organizational leadership, and physician assistant studies. Juniata emphasizes experiential learning through research, internships, study abroad, and field-based work. Its location in central Pennsylvania and its field station support hands-on study in environmental science and related disciplines, while campus museums and collections contribute to teaching in art, history, and science.
