Four years ago, was like many high school seniors. He knew he would go to college, but didn’t know where and wasn’t sure what he would study.

A high school football coach recommended Simpson. Once there, a business professor influenced his future.

“He convinced me that I should go into accounting,” Alex says. “I love it. I got several job offers. My friends at bigger universities have had a little more trouble finding jobs. All of the employers I’ve talked with think very highly of Simpson grads and they are willing to hire us because of Simpson’s reputation.”

Alex will work at the Principal Financial Group as he prepares for his Certified Public Accountant exam.

“Not only did I get a great education at Simpson, but I met a lot of people and built a lot of relationships with people in many different industries,” he says.

The Simpson Curriculum has led the way nationally in helping students develop the skills that employers and graduate schools demand from tomorrow’s leaders.

Our students dig deeper and work on projects that provide a hands-on understanding of the subject. You will be encouraged to take advantage of community partnerships, internships, Study Abroad opportunities and independent research.

In doing so, you will develop skills to prepare you for the exciting, fulfilling and successful future that you want.

You may know what you want to study. You may wish to sample a few courses before determining a future direction. You will find what you want here. We can help you choose. We pride ourselves on it.

YOUR SUCCESS?


Most of our professors hold the highest degrees in their fields. They are accomplished experts, and they will be teaching your classes, not graduate assistants.

Our smaller class sizes mean you will get the personal attention you deserve. Simpson professors invest the time to get to know you as a person – your hopes, your dreams.

Someday, they may be writing recommendations on your behalf to employers and graduate schools.

Wouldn’t you want them to know you?

At Simpson, they will.

discovered the value of a Simpson education while she was applying to medical school. On one trip, she was allowed to sit in on a class at the prestigious Rush Medical School in Chicago.

“I basically knew everything they were talking about, and everyone else was lost,” she says. “That’s a real example of how the professors at Simpson have prepared me. I definitely have confidence that I can take it to the next level and be successful.”

Jacki was accepted to Rush and plans to become a doctor.

WORKING TOGETHER, ACHIEVING SUCCESS

The Student didn’t know how much she

enjoyed research until she arrived at Simpson.

She joined a team with Clint Meyer, assistant professor of biology, that studied natural wetlands as well as cicadas.

“It’s been phenomenal,” she says. “I would not have gotten this experience anywhere else. We’re a great team. I can go to him for anything.”

“You can get your feet dirty – learn what you like, learn what you don’t like – and the professors are there with you the entire way.”

The Professor “I’m a bug guy,” says. “A lot of people roll their eyes and snicker about that, but it was when I was out in the field doing research that I really became hooked on the subject. That field experience took what I learned in textbooks right out there into the real world.”

It’s this enthusiasm for his subject that Meyer passes on to his students.

“I love it when you can see the light go on in their head and they say, ‘Wow, this is really interesting.’”

Simpson excels at research. We believe in hands-on learning. Our students present their research findings throughout the country. It’s all part of building your resume and giving you real-world experience.

Our professors and students work and learn together.

You can learn more by exploring another country than by reading about it.

A firsthand understanding of other cultures will make you a well- rounded student and will put you in a better position to compete in the global marketplace.

The “Simpson Experience Abroad” program gives students and faculty members the opportunity to spend a semester studying abroad. Destinations include Argentina, Australia, London, Germany, Tahiti and Thailand.

In addition, our popular May Term provides students a chance to participate in an intensive, three-week long, faculty-led international travel course.

Our alumni say that studying abroad was an unforgettable experience that helped shape their future.

His freshman year at Simpson, Jordan signed up for a May Term trip to China.

“It was definitely one of the best experiences I had at Simpson,” he says. “I was just amazed at the differences in our cultures. We went over there and we were treated like rock stars. That was pretty cool.”

There was a practical benefit as well.

“I’m a business major, and China is one of the world’s growing markets. In international business, just being familiar with the Chinese culture is huge.”“ B e c a u s e I c h o s e S i m p s o n ,

MAY TERMThe Simpson academic calendar features two, four-month semesters. This is followed by a three-week period called May Term.

Our students and faculty love May Term. It gives students the opportunity to take a specialized class and earn credits outside their major, or they may choose to accept an internship during this time.

In recent years, May Term classes have featured learning experiences such as Australia and the Great Barrier Reef, Borneo, Madagascar, the Dominican Republic, as well as Dallas, Texas, to study the area where President Kennedy was assassinated.

Courses taught on campus have included, “The Art of Mathematics,” “Introduction to the Creation of 3D Movies & Graphics” and “The Art and Science of Humor.”

Simpson excels in the arts – and you don’t have to be a music, art or theatre major to participate.

In fact, students are encouraged to step out of their comfort zone and try something new.

You can, of course, major in art, theatre or music, but part of what makes the Simpson experience so enriching is that you can still participate in those programs as a non-major.

You never know what might happen. Maybe you’ll find yourself on stage! Anything is possible at Simpson.

ARTS


Mike Fisher, a 2006 Simpson graduate, transformed the West Marshall Marching Band in State Center, Iowa, from a 12-student ensemble to an award-winning band.

So when Fisher left to become a principal at another school, West Marshall looked for someone to build on the tradition.

They looked to Simpson College.

A Simpson music professor recommended graduating senior

to Fisher, who recommended him to West Marshall officials.

“Simpson played a huge role in helping me get an interview and the job,” Ryan says.

LET’S GO STORM! few moments demonstrate the tremendous campus spirit more than feeling that surge of adrenaline and the roar of the crowd when one of Simpson’s athletic teams go to battle with an archrival.

We celebrate success here as well. We have captured 20 national team and individual titles in the past 25 years.

Simpson athletes compete at the NCAA Division III level in the Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.

Our facilities are top-notch and getting better. In the summer of 2011, Simpson installed a new football field turf and track surface that is considered to be the highest performing and most innovative in the industry. Exciting improvements are underway for the expansion and renovation of Cowles Athletic Center.

It’s all about putting you in the best position to succeed.

He competed on the cross country and track teams. At the same time, he was pursuing a double major and a double minor, as well as serving as a member of the Student Athlete Advisory Committee and president of Sports Management Club.

His hard work paid off with two summer internships with United States Track & Field in Indianapolis, Indiana. And this fall, he will begin work toward a master’s degree in sports management at Illinois State University.

“Thanks to the connections of my professors at Simpson, I was able to land an internship at United States Track & Field, and then make my own connections,” Matt says. “Using these connections, I have put myself in a better spot for my future career.”
