Our goal is to provide quality service to our customers while improving and enhancing the physical aspects of our university.

Library services

The J. Eugene Smith Library supports and enriches the university's teaching, learning, research, and outreach objectives by providing services and resources that foster intellectual curiosity and integrity, promote critical inquiry, and encourage awareness of the world beyond the campus. 

ICT services

As part of Eastern’s Information Technology Services department, Media Services provides a broad variety of media-related services to the Eastern community. These services are defined in two primary areas; Multimedia Production and Media Technology Support.

Medical services

The mission of the Student Health Service is to promote the lifelong health and well-being of Eastern’s students through the provision of accessible, comprehensive, caring and cost-effective primary health care and educational outreach.

Campus life

The campus is located in the heart of eastern Connecticut, just 2 hours from New York City and 1.5 hours from Boston.

Eastern’s inclusive residential campus, outstanding faculty, emphasis on teaching excellence and exceptional facilities raise students’ aspirations and cultivate engagement, inquiry, integrity and social responsibility. In the traditional arts and sciences, as well as in pre-professional programs that are grounded in the liberal arts, Eastern students apply theory in practical settings.

Sports facilities

By placing its highest priority on the overall quality of the liberal arts educational experience, Eastern Connecticut State University's Department of Intercollegiate Athletics, Intramurals & Recreation seeks to integrate its programs and goals with academic and developmental objectives and to assure the assimilation of student-athletes into the general student body.

Student clubs

The Office of Student Activities provides social and educational activities outside the classroom which enhance learning and personal development. Through engagement, students participate in leadership development opportunities that empower them to become socially responsible leaders.

From student-led initiatives in the numerous student organizations on campus to various campus-wide events and traditions, the Student Activities staff are here to enhance the student experience at Eastern.
