What distinguishes Keene State from most undergraduate colleges are the opportunities students have to work one-on-one with faculty or to apply their skills in local communities. Each year, students and faculty work together on research and scholarship projects. Many of these projects, which may be funded by grants from the College, are selected for the annual Academic Excellence Conference.
