College of the Atlantic - Bar Harbor, ME

This is a small private liberal arts college by the ocean. Founded in 1969, this alternative college allows its students to design their own curriculum, so each student's program is individualized and interdisciplinary. All of the approx. 350 students have human ecology as their major because this college is exceptionally concerned with environmental and ecological issues.
Students at COA are taught to "think out of the box." COA is a Maine Sea Grant college program so students can study & work with marine life. Princeton Review cited COA in its Best Colleges book. The college is committed to sustainability both on its campus and throughout the global community.
The campus is known for its beauty (it is located near Arcadia National Park). COA offers two degrees: the Bachelor of Arts and the Master of Philosophy; in human ecology.
