Arts & Science courses are intended to add both depth and breadth to each student's overall educational experience by providing opportunities to make interdisciplinary connections between concepts and ideas, as well as an environment to contemplate their meaning and significance. Mastering the basic tenets of a liberal arts education, students focus on learning critical thinking, analysis, communication skills, quantitative and scientific literacy, civic engagement, citizenship, and understanding of ethical dimensions of behavior.
