Where Great Ideas Change the World
The Faculty of Arts provides you with a wide spectrum of subjects from which you will acquire core skills vital to any career you choose. Employers recognize that a liberal arts degree fuels an individual’s imagination and broadens the mind, which is key for innovation and thinking beyond the ordinary. Employers look for adaptability, collaboration, teamwork, communication and critical thinking skills. Through our thought-provoking and creative programs, you will acquire these skills as well as refine your research and analytical abilities through many diverse learning experiences.
Whether you are uncovering the science of human behaviour through psychology, studying the interpretation and expression of human intellect through the humanities, discovering clues to the fundamental questions of existence through philosophy, or learning other important truths about what makes us human, the Faculty of Arts will help you develop real-world skills that will prepare you for a long and successful career.
