Students are invited to engage the liberal arts through a variety of experiential learning programs. These programs challenge students beyond the classroom, where they develop critical and creative skills that prepare them to lead lives of significance and success. Students develop knowledge and skills across disciplines because their experiences in the liberal arts challenge their curiosity and lead them to new perspectives for solving problems.<\/p>\n
Participation in a Study Abroad program expands our students\u2019 global awareness and cultural competence, exposing students to new people, places, languages, cultures and experiences. Students may take liberal arts courses as part of our semester study abroad programs or our faculty led Global Experiences, including \u201cMaymester\u201d programs.<\/p>\n
The Service Learning program increases students\u2019 civic and cultural engagement by connecting the theory of the classroom with the practices of good citizens. Students in the Service Learning program are better prepared to contribute to society, participate in our democracy, and effect positive change. Service Learning courses<\/a><\/strong> can be found in the Liberal Arts Core Curriculum of the University, in Liberal Arts majors courses, and throughout the University\u2019s professional schools.<\/p>\n The Undergraduate Research and Creative Works (URCW) program encourages and supports collaborative partnerships between nurturing faculty mentors and enterprising students. These partnerships promote the development of innovation and ingenuity, foster critical thinking, and provide students with invaluable opportunities to explore new areas of research and creative work.<\/p>\n\n
