One of the great advantages of a liberal studies program is its flexibility. The liberal studies program allows students to tailor courses of study just for them. At Florida College the liberal studies program is built around a core of four humanities courses in the great books and daily biblical studies courses. But students will also take four courses in each of two other areas choosing from English, Speech, Business, Social Science, or Education. Depending upon a student's load, they will also take four to seven additional courses as electives in these or other areas.
Courses are also available in math, music and the natural sciences.
The program culminates in a senior thesis that ties together at least two of these disciplines. Click here to return to top of page. The successful student must maintain a 2.25 average on all upper-level hours as well as an overall 2.25 average. The student must also successfully complete a senior thesis that integrates the work of the two upper-division years and spans at least two areas of concentration. This thesis will be completed in a course in the final semester of the student's program.
