Humanities and liberal studies is an interdisciplinary program that draws on literature, philosophy, history, art, and the social sciences. This is an excellent choice for students who are looking for a general cultural understanding. Many graduates of liberal studies programs go on to pursue graduate or professional education in a specific field, such as education or library science. Others use their ability to think critically and to synthesize information from a variety of sources in positions as office administrators, legal assistants, and editors.
