About the Academy

Michigan Academy of Sciences, Arts & Letters

The Michigan Academy of Science, Arts, and Letters is a regional professional organization that facilitates scholarly exchange through annual meetings and a journal of outstanding papers and news about research at Michigan colleges and universities.

Over half of the Academy’s current members are faculty and students of supporting Michigan colleges and universities. Others include independent scholars, scholars from other states, and people engaged in relevant research in business and government. Membership is open to all.

The Academy’s primary activities are the annual meetings, usually held in March and hosted by one of its member institutions, and the publication of the Academician.

 

Students learn important leadership principles for the 21st century from internationally recognized speakers like Madeleine Albright and Vicente Fox and by participating in international study opportunities through inventive programs like the Center for Responsible Leadership and the Posey Global Leadership Fellows Program.

Alma’s close faculty-student interaction provides numerous benefits such as the ability to do undergraduate research on a graduate level. Alma’s professors treat students more as peers welcoming student input and collaboration on faculty projects. When students are involved in research, faculty aggressively pursue publication of findings including students as co-authors.
