Highlights

  • The hands-on approach to astronomy at Vassar was shaped by Maria Mitchell, America’s first woman astronomer and also the first director of the Vassar College Observatory.
  • The astronomy curriculum includes introductory and advanced astrophysics courses with topics covering planets and exoplanets, stars, interstellar matter, galaxies, cosmology, and observational techniques.
  • At the on-campus observatory, students monitor variable objects like supernovae (exploded high mass stars), quasars (supermassive black holes at the centers of distant galaxies), cataclysmic binaries (stars in contact with each other, exchanging mass as they evolve), exoplanets (detected as they cross in front of their star), and solar system objects.
