Liberal Arts and Sciences University College Roosevelt

Overview

Your first year is about two things, exploring your interests and building the skills you need. You’ll kickstart your skills-building with the only mandatory course: Personal & Professional Development (PPD). PPD helps you transition from high school to university life, while developing essential skills for both in and outside the classroom. 

Next to that, you can choose any introductory course (or 100-level) from the get-go. Some of the more advanced courses (200-or 300-levels) are locked behind what we call gateway courses. These gateways build the skills you need to succeed in the higher levels. 

Dive deeper from your second year onwards. You’ll choose core courses to develop expertise and keep future master’s programmes in sight. And responsive courses? They evolve with the world—and with you. Many courses you’ll be taking include Community Engaged Learning, where you’ll work with local partners, apply your knowledge, and learn from real-world challenges. Because knowledge sticks best when you use it.

You’ll also take a research-intensive 300-level course, where you conduct research on your own or with others. Throughout the  Liberal Arts and Sciences degree offered at University College Roosevelt you’ll track your progress through a digital Portfolio.
