Dean: Dr. Teresa Reed
The School of Arts and Sciences supports the University’s objectives to provide a fundamental grounding in the liberal arts through programs of study in the fine and applied arts, the humanities, mathematics, and the natural sciences.
At the undergraduate level, degree programs are available in Art, Biology, Communications, Computer Science, English, Fashion Design, Fashion Merchandising, Graphic Design, History, Interior Design, Liberal Studies, Mathematics, Philosophy, Politics, and Theology and Religious Studies.
Undergraduate students seeking teaching licensure on the secondary level (grades 6-12) in Biology, English, History and Social Science, or Mathematics follow a prescribed program of studies that both fulfills the requirements of their major discipline and leads to secondary teaching licensure. The programs in Art Education and English as a Second Language lead to licensure to teach students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Licensure at the elementary level (grades PK-6) can be pursued through a major in Liberal Studies.
In addition, the School of Arts and Sciences offers the majority of courses required in the Liberal Arts Core requirements at the undergraduate level.
At the graduate level, the School offers programs in Computer Science, Humanities, Interior Design, and Literature and Language. Teaching Licensure in Secondary English is also available through the Master of Arts in Humanities program.
Nondegree Admission: Graduate nondegree admission, in programs which permit it, is limited to a total of 12 credits in the Schools of Arts and Sciences. See individual program descriptions for further restrictions or requirements.
