Our Campuses
A Statewide Campus
UMass Amherst extends far beyond its flagship campus, with locations across Massachusetts that bring its academic strength into real-world settings. From the UMass Center at Springfield, expanding access and opportunity in Western Mass, to the Charles River Campus, where students connect with industry in the Boston area, to the Gloucester Marine Station, where research and learning happen on the front lines of coastal science—each site offers a distinct, hands-on experience. Wherever you are, UMass meets you with the resources, expertise, and opportunities to learn, work, and make an impact.
The Charles River Campus—located in Newton, MA—is UMass Amherst's Greater Boston hub for professional development and more. This center for student-focused experiential learning and a hub of research-industry collaboration offers internship pathways, a first-year exploratory program, and programs in veterinary technology, business analytics, and statistics.
Offering flexible, high-demand certificate, undergraduate, and graduate programs in downtown Springfield, the center connects the region to UMass Amherst’s academic and research strengths. It expands opportunity and drives impact across key sectors—from healthcare and education to engineering, the creative economy, and emerging green industries.
Located in one of the nation’s oldest fishing ports, the Gloucester Marine Station places students at the center of hands-on coastal research in the Gulf of Maine. Here, you’ll work alongside researchers and local fishing communities to advance sustainable solutions for the “blue economy”—gaining real-world experience through internships and field-based learning.
