 | LIBERAL AND PROFESSIONAL STUDIES
(Ext. 2029)
The Liberal and Professional Studies Program is a multidisciplinary, general degree program for students who desire a university education combining a solid academic core grounded widely in the social sciences, arts, sciences, and business, along with the opportunity to integrate combinations of discipline-based courses not possible in other programs. The Liberal and Professional Studies Program embodies the character of a traditional liberal arts education set in a contemporary academic and social context. This program is intended primarily for part-time working adults but is open to all students.
