This resource is a great way to explore Liberal Arts and Sciences majors and better understand how your academic interests can connect to future opportunities. Each major page includes a description of the major, skills and competencies developed through coursework, Career Snaps featuring career titles and pathways, alumni highlights, industry clusters, related career resources, and student perspectives.

You will also find links to department websites so you can explore courses, faculty, events, research opportunities, and other resources connected to each major. Our goal is to help you see the value and versatility of LAS majors, expand your perspective on career possibilities, and encourage you to connect your strengths and interests to meaningful paths ahead.

The world is evolving at a rapid rate, requiring more collaboration and creativity.  As the boundaries between academic areas fade, interdisciplinary research and education become even more important for bringing about positive social changes such as improving public health, building stronger communities, and creating a more sustainable environment.

Several LAS offerings span more than one academic department allowing students to learn and work in collaborative ways across fields and disciplines. Our areas of interdisciplinary study prepare students for the global job market and emphasize the connection between the humanities, health and science, social science research, and education.
