Hilbert College is a private Catholic institution located in Hamburg, New York, approximately 10 miles south of Buffalo. The campus occupies 50 acres in a suburban setting and features a mix of modern and traditional academic buildings. Founded in 1957 by the Franciscan Sisters of St. Joseph as a teacher training college for religious sisters, Hilbert has evolved into a coeducational institution offering liberal arts and professional programs, with notable strengths in criminal justice, forensic science, and business administration. The college provides traditional dormitory housing for residential students in Trinity Hall and St. Joseph Hall, while maintaining its Franciscan heritage through various campus ministry programs and community service initiatives.
