About Us

 

All students will take classes in the College of Arts and Sciences at some point, as it offers the most majors over a wide variety of disciplines as well as many of the required classes in the university's liberal arts core curriculum. From biochemistry and international studies to theatre and political science, the programs in this college provide a rich opportunity for creating courses of study that reflect today's interdisciplinary job market.

In fact, more than 70 percent of the college's students carry a minor, and many take double majors. Research is a key feature, and last year alone, more than 100 students engaged in research with faculty members that resulted in co-authoring papers and presenting at university, state and regional research conferences. In addition to six preprofessional options, the college offers a five-year BS/MS degree in criminal justice.
