Liberal Arts The University of Exeter

Overview

This Liberal Arts programme from The University of Exeter will:

• Bring together the creative arts, humanities, social sciences, business and other associated subjects, allowing you to select a field of specialisation (your Major), complemented by other subjects, including an ancient or modern language.

• Study alongside the wider university population in subject lectures and seminars and with the support of like-minded Liberal Arts students and staff.

• Benefit from a global perspective, addressing contemporary worldwide issues, and will develop your intellectual capabilities and critical skills.

• Participate in mini conferences, research seminars and societies run by departments and the Students’ Guild around your subject(s) of interest and the student-run Liberal Arts Society.

Career opportunities:

Develop critical skills, experience, innovative attitudes and cultural intelligence valued by global employers. The Think-Tank module, taken in your second year, gives you direct experience working with employers and external organisations, researching real-life problems. Working in small groups or ‘think tanks’ you will explore a specific social, political or economic issue in the contemporary world.

Enhance your analytical abilities by scrutinising academic research and your problem-solving skills by using this knowledge to help solve the challenge. Working alongside your contemporaries you’ll need to utilise good communication and will deploy oratory skills in the culminating presentation.
