Message from the President

Photo: Shirley Strum KennyYou have entered Stony Brook's virtual universe. Here, on our Web site, you will learn from students and faculty the many reasons why The New York Times has called Stony Brook "one of the nation's most dramatic rising stars."

Our faculty is known for thinking unconventionally and creatively. As a major national research university, we encourage our students to contribute to new knowledge.

Whether it's making new and exciting discoveries in science, medicine, and technology, infusing the region's economy with new vigor and strength, or providing primary medical services to more than half a million Long Islanders, Stony Brook is aiming higher and shining brighter than ever.

I invite you to visit often and explore our many fascinating and informative Web pages and discover all that Stony Brook has to offer. And I look forward to welcoming you to our beautiful campus.

President, Stony Brook University
