PROGRAM GUIDE

The term liberal arts is derived from the Latin word liber. Which means free.

Wouldn’t you love to be free to learn more about what interests you most?

By learning about the past and exploring the future of human endeavour, you will begin to understand the world and find your unique place within it. The three-year Bachelor of Arts with a concentration in General Studies will prepare you for further study in a profession of your choice or help you decide what career to pursue if you’re not sure yet.

"At a larger institution, it is easier to get lost in the shuffle, but a small school population makes it possible to define yourself on your own terms. The General Studies degree has brought me closer to realizing my authentic self."
Dan Olchowecki, BA General Studies, 2010
