Student Research

Monumental Ideas, Inventive Solutions

There’s no reason to wait until graduate school to do real research. At Saint Anselm, we consider research an integral part of an undergraduate education, so no matter your major, you’ll find opportunities to study a subject in-depth.

Saint Anselm students are studying the development of cancer, compiling data on the Civil War, investigating media’s portrayal of women in politics. They’re pushing toward real breakthroughs. They’re even getting their names published in academic journals and presenting at conferences around the country.

Valuable Skills

In the labs and in the field, our students are gaining valuable skills and understanding of the world around them. Working one-on-one with faculty, they’re trained on equipment, terminology, and library resources, and can bounce ideas off each other and their mentors along the way.

Real research leads you to wider opportunities and career paths. With the help of faculty who are experts in their field and dedicated to your success, you’ll get into the graduate school of your choice or land the job of your dreams.

History & Mission

Saint Anselm College was founded in 1889 by the Benedictine monks of St. Mary's Abbey of Newark, New Jersey, in response to the invitation by Bishop Denis M. Bradley, the first bishop of Manchester, N.H. A six-year classical course, with curricula in philosophical and theological studies, was organized and opened to qualified students.

Our Patron Saint

The Order of Saint Benedict of New Hampshire, our founding religious order, received its official charter from the State of New Hampshire on August 1, 1889. With the support of Manchester’s first diocesan bishop, Bishop Dennis Bradley, the Benedictine founders began the construction of the beautiful academic institution, known today as “Saint Anselm College.”  Our founders appropriately chose Saint Anselm of Canterbury, an English saint and medieval scholar, as the college’s patron.
