This certificate requires a minimum of 15 credits, but may require more if the Language requirement is not satisfied by examination of oral/aural and reading skills in any Asian language approved by the Asian Studies head advisor. In the College of Liberal Arts, our students learn how to learn by exploring a rich diversity of rigorous coursework in the humanities and social sciences, including anthropology, English, history, philosophy, sociology, religion, psychology and foreign languages. Many of our courses are taught in intimate, seminar-style settings that encourage students to engage our world-class faculty in meaningful discourse that expands world views and enhances analytical reasoning skills. Equally important is the flexibility afforded students within the liberal arts curriculum, which provides them with myriad opportunities to supplement their classroom education in meaningful ways by participating in study abroad programs, engaging in directed research, pursuing original scholarship through independent studies, and gaining valuable professional experience in internship programs. Taken together, these liberal arts experiences not only prepare students for rewarding careers, but for fulfilling lives as informed and engaged citizens of the world.
