Small university. Big possibilities.
At Baker, learning takes place both inside and outside the classroom: lively discussions and challenging course work, research and pre-professional conferences, leadership opportunities, study abroad, and student clubs.
Despite our small size—Baker graduates are known for their big accomplishments. Fortune 500 CEOs, New York Times best-selling authors, a Pulitzer Prize winner, and a Super Bowl champion all proudly claim Baker, the first university in Kansas, as their alma mater.
