Liberal Studies is an interdisciplinary program designed for students who intend to become elementary and special education teachers or pursue related graduate work. Students will develop critical thinking skills, a comprehensive academic background, and communications skills as they study the areas of language and literature, math and science, history and social science, and visual and performing arts. Professional development courses provide early fieldwork opportunities, and support the transition to credential programs.

Liberal Studies is the preferred undergraduate major for students preparing to teach elementary or special education.
