Liberal Arts

About

An internationally recognised, interdisciplinary approach to undergraduate study not limited by traditional discipline boundaries.

Your studies will bring together the creative arts, humanities, social sciences, business and other associated subjects, allowing you to select a field of specialisation (your Major), complemented by other subjects, including an ancient or modern language.

Study alongside the wider university population in subject lectures and seminars and with the support of like-minded Liberal Arts students and staff.

Benefit from a global perspective, addressing contemporary worldwide issues, and will develop your intellectual capabilities and critical skills.

Participate in mini conferences, research seminars and societies run by departments and the Students’ Guild around your subject(s) of interest and the student-run Liberal Arts Society.
