📚About the Program

A liberal arts education equips you for life. The Liberal Arts program teaches you to think critically, enhance your communication skills and become a more resourceful, innovative and self-confident person.

📖Program Curriculum

A Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in Liberal Arts from Concordia University provides students with a broad-based education in various disciplines within the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. The curriculum is designed to foster critical thinking, effective communication skills, and a well-rounded understanding of the world. While the specific courses and requirements may vary, here is a general overview of what a Liberal Arts program at Concordia University might include:

Core Requirements: Liberal Arts programs typically have a set of core requirements that students must complete. These courses may cover foundational subjects such as English composition, mathematics, natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. The core requirements ensure that students develop a diverse range of knowledge and skills across multiple disciplines.

Major Concentration: Within the Liberal Arts program, students usually have the option to choose a major concentration in a specific field of study. The available majors can vary, but examples include English, history, sociology, psychology, philosophy, political science, or environmental studies. The specific requirements for each major will depend on the chosen discipline and its curriculum.

Electives: Liberal Arts programs often provide students with the flexibility to choose elective courses based on their interests. These courses can be selected from a wide range of disciplines, allowing students to explore diverse areas of study beyond their major concentration. Electives enable students to customize their education according to their intellectual curiosity and career goals.

Language Requirements: Some Liberal Arts programs may have language requirements, such as proficiency in a second language or a certain number of language courses. These requirements aim to enhance students' cultural understanding and communication skills.

Capstone or Senior Project: Many Liberal Arts programs include a capstone or senior project, which serves as a culminating experience for students. This project could be a research paper, thesis, creative project, or a presentation that demonstrates the student's mastery of the knowledge and skills acquired during their studies.

It's important to note that the specific courses, major options, and requirements for a Liberal Arts program at Concordia University may differ from what is outlined above. To get the most accurate and up-to-date information, I recommend visiting the official Concordia University website or contacting the university directly for detailed information about their Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts program.
