Career opportunities in liberal studies are plentiful and are limited only by your imagination, motivation and drive.   Learning, discovering, and expanding the self through courses in the humanities, fine arts, and social sciences can lead to careers or continued study that you may never before have considered as possible.

Public school teachers and administrators come to the liberal arts in search of opportunities to broaden fields of interest and to integrate liberal studies more securely and directly into their discipline.

Others find in liberal studies a stepping-stone to a second masters or to a doctoral degree. With the opportunity to create your own program of study through your choice of electives and to expand your knowledge through your research and writing you can focus on a specific topic in preparation for your next academic goal.

Some have come to the MALS program in search of an opportunity to read and learn for the sake of reading and learning, and some find in the program a self-confidence that can lead to increased career opportunities, personal growth and professional advancement.
