BARD COLLEGE IS AN INDEPENDENT, COMPREHENSIVE LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGE LOCATED ON A PARK-LAKE CAMPUS THAT COVERS MORE THAN 1,000 ACRES OF FIELDS AND FORESTED LAND BORDERING THE HUDSON RIVER. BARD HAS DEVELOPED A NEW VISION AND MODEL OF THE LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGE, AS A CENTRAL BODY SURROUNDED BY SIGNIFICANT INSTITUTES AND PROGRAMS - "SATELLITES" - THAT STRENGTHEN ITS' CURRICULUM. WHILE IT IS FLEXIBLE ENOUGH TO INCLUDE PROGRAMS FOR RESEARCH, GRADUATE STUDY, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, AND OTHER CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES, THE UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAM REMAINS ITS FOCUS. EACH SATELLITE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ENHANCE THE UNDERGRADUATE COURSE OF STUDY BY OFFERING STUDENTS OPPORTUNITIES FOR INTERACTION WITH LEADING ARTISTS AND SCHOLARS. IN ADDITION TO THE UNDERGRADUATE COLLEGE, BARD HAS UNDERTAKEN A NUMBER OF IMPORTANT EDUCATIONAL INITIATIVES THAT INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO THE FOLLOWING: DURING 1979, BARD ASSUMED CONTROL AND OWNERSHIP OF SIMON'S ROCK EARLY COLLEGE (NOW CALLED BARD COLLEGE AT SIMON'S ROCK) (SIMON'S ROCK) LOCATED IN GREAT BARRINGTON, MASSACHUSETTS. ALTHOUGH BARD AND SIMON'S ROCK REMAIN DISTINCT AND CARRY ON SEPARATE ACADEMIC PROGRAMS AT THEIR RESPECTIVE CAMPUSES, THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE TWO INSTITUTIONS GIVES BARD AN EXCEPTIONAL OPPORTUNITY TO APPLY ITS EXPERIENCE AS A LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A STRONG CURRICULUM FOR YOUNGER STUDENTS.

THE BGC OFFERS A MASTERS OF ARTS DEGREE IN THE HISTORY OF THE DECORATIVE ARTS AND A DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DEGREE IN THE HISTORY OF THE DECORATIVE ARTS, DESIGN, AND CULTURE. IT SPONSORS SEVERAL MAJOR EXHIBITIONS ANNUALLY AND PRESENTS DIVERSE PUBLIC PROGRAMS FOR AUDIENCES RANGING FROM DECORATIVE ARTS PROFESSIONALS AND COLLECTORS TO SCHOOLCHILDREN. THE BGC IS LOCATED IN NEW YORK CITY, IN TWO BEAUX ARTS TOWNHOUSES CLOSE TO THE CITY'S LEADING MUSEUMS AND GALLERIES, AND, IN BARD HALL. DURING 2003, THE RICHARD B. FISHER CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS AT BARD COLLEGE (FISHER CENTER) WAS OPENED OFFERING A WORLD-CLASS COMPLEX FOR INNOVATIVE ARTISTIC REPRESENTATION. THE FISHER CENTER IS HOME TO BARD COLLEGE'S THEATER AND DANCE PROGRAMS, AS WELL AS THE BARD MUSIC FESTIVAL, AND HOST TO PERFORMANCES BY THE AMERICAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA. GENERALLY, THE FISHER CENTER PROVIDES AUDIENCES WITH A BOLD AND DYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT THAT INSPIRES RISK-TAKING PERFORMANCE AND PROVOCATIVE PROGRAMS IN ORCHESTRAL, CHAMBER, AND JAZZ MUSIC AND THEATER, DANCE AND OPERA BY AMERICAN AND INTERNATIONAL ARTISTS. DURING 2011, BARD ALSO ASSUMED CONTROL AND OWNERSHIP OF ECLA - EUROPEAN COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS GGMBH, NOW CALLED BARD COLLEGE BERLIN, GGMBH AND BARD REAL ESTATE GMBH, A GERMAN ENTITY HOLDING TITLE TO ALL BUT ONE OF BARD COLLEGE BERLIN, GGMBH'S LAND AND BUILDINGS.
