The College of Arts and Sciences serves as the intellectual core of the university, offering study in fine and performing arts, humanities, natural sciences and mathematics, and social sciences. We offer 45 undergraduate majors and minors, a self-designed major program, and six graduate degree programs. The College of Arts and Sciences is large and diverse with more than 4,500 undergraduate majors and 300 graduate students. But our class sizes are small and faculty members are actively engaged with their students. Our students routinely participate in faculty research projects, internships, artistic endeavors, service learning projects, and study abroad programs.
