College of Arts and Sciences
Students in the College of Arts and Sciences are active learners, educated to think critically, explore possibilities, and discover new solutions, whether it is a novel way to connect classic works of literature to contemporary issues or a cross-disciplinary collaboration to develop a pain-free blood sugar test. Our students make an impact on the world and often do so long before they graduate.
Through a liberal arts curriculum, supported by experiential and study abroad opportunities, undergraduate students gain knowledge in the natural and mathematical sciences, social sciences, and humanities. They graduate prepared to make contributions to their fields of study and to society.
Undergraduates can pursue nearly 30 majors and several time and tuition saving combined degree programs. In keeping with national trends, 25% of our students registered at Open House are undecided. Our Exploratory Program gives you the freedom to consider all of your options—a smart way to maximize your investment.
Our growing master’s and doctoral programs offer advanced education for teachers, communication specialists, and writers. Capitalizing on the breadth and diversity of the University’s academic offerings and our outstanding faculty, we are uniquely positioned to inspire students and to present numerous combined and accelerated programs. We are renowned for research, especially in the field of applied behavior analysis.
