About Us
The Schiller Coastal Studies Center (SCSC) is a multidisciplinary campus on 118 acres of forest and meadows along Maine's rocky Atlantic coast—with easy access to the Gulf of Maine.
The Schiller facilities provide opportunities—unlike those available at any other liberal arts college in the country—for field- and laboratory-based interdisciplinary study related to critical issues of coastal and climate concern. With its oceanside location and modernized research and teaching facilities, the Schiller Center is foundational to Bowdoin's expanding role as a leader in environmental studies.
Along with the Roux Center for Environmental Studies, the Bowdoin Scientific Station on Kent Island, and the John and Lile Gibbons Center for Arctic Studies, the SCSC is part of a growing Bowdoin hub enabling student and faculty research into our changing earth and oceans.
