What is all the buzz about the liberal arts? The “liberal” in liberal arts refers to liberty or freedom, in the sense of increasing knowledge and skills as a way to free your mind. The “arts” in liberal arts stands for the various areas of study, such as humanities, the social sciences, and the natural and physical sciences, including mathematics. St. Norbert College offers an exceptional liberal arts education that lays the groundwork for a life of meaning and purpose.
Our core liberal arts college curriculum explores connections between topics in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences and the arts. Creating a solid grounding across these disciplines helps you synthesize helpful information from different sources. For example, the courses you take in environmental science can help you as an international business and language area studies major, because you will know how to evaluate major trends in extreme weather when you are planning for future business needs. Likewise, the courses you take in psychology can help you as a data analytics major, because you’ll build skills to see the story behind the numbers as it connects to human behavior.
No matter what area of study you choose, SNC gives you the tools needed to assess empirical claims, interpret cultural expressions, integrate knowledge from different disciplines, collaborate with others and confront ethical dilemmas in a thoughtful way. You’ll become an informed and insightful leader, ready to adapt to a variety of positions.
