Master of Arts Degree in Liberal Studies
An interdisciplinary program designed for college-educated adults who seek full or part-time study to pursue their intellectual interest through non-traditional studies. This program emphasizes learning for its own sake, without direct reference to occupational or career interests. Studies are devoted to the objectives of liberal education: developing critical thinking skills, fostering intellectual flexibility, and cultivating an individual's ability to create linkages between diverse areas of human thought from sciences to literature.
Admission
Applicants are expected to hold a bachelor's degree from a college or university of recognized standing and to have an academic record and recommendations which indicate the applicant can successfully complete this graduate program. Interviews may be required. Inquiries about the program and applications should be referred to the Office of Graduate Studies.
