What is a degree in Liberal Studies?
The B.S. in liberal studies is a major program designed to provide (1) a structured program that encourages students to explore a diversity of academic skills and disciplines, (2) a program of study for students who have not decided upon a specific school or major, and (3) an option for students who have a desire to create their own major program. It is not necessary for students who enter the university undecided about a major to continue in liberal studies through graduation. Many students who begin in the liberal studies program interests that lead them to declare a specific major.
