Overview

Because it covers such a broad base, the Liberal Arts program of the Utah State University develops the student's rational thought and intellectual capabilities in many areas.

Students are able to plan a multi-disciplinary academic program, focusing primarily on subjects in social science, humanities, and the arts. Students in the liberal arts major are strongly encouraged, but not required, to seek out second majors, strong minors, or area studies certificates, which provide knowledge and prerequisite skills for further education or increase opportunities for employment.

Students graduating with a degree in liberal arts are highly desired by employers in a number of areas. By completing a degree through this program, students show they are trainable, fast learners, motivated, flexible, and willing to take on new ideas and concepts. Because students also study a foreign language, they develop marketable language and communication skills, which are sought after by many employers.

Career Options

Many students who graduate in liberal arts continue on to higher education programs in a variety of areas, including medicine, law, dentistry, business, humanities, and social sciences. Because liberal arts majors develop strong skills in communication, critical thinking, and are flexible and adaptable learners, they can also pursue a wide range of careers upon graduation with a bachelor’s degree.

Programme Structure

Four goals for learning have been identified, and courses are selected to fulfill these goals.

Students must choose 9 credits of coursework from each goal for a total of 36 credits.

Students must complete courses from a minimum of two different departments listed under each goal.

Of the 36 total credits, students must earn 18 credits in courses numbered 3000 or higher.

All credits counting in the 36-credit minimum must have a letter grade of C or better and cannot be taken pass/fail.

At least 18 credits used in the goal areas must be completed at USU.

At least 18 credits used in the goal areas must be no older than 10 years.
