Our world is in constant motion. It buzzes with potential. Cultures beg to be explored; cures wait to be discovered. And in the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, our constant curiosity propels us to investigate so that we can seek a better tomorrow, today.
From the innovative labs of biology to the celebrations of culture through world literature, LAS students use their curiosity to find creative solutions that improve our world.
Of course, you don’t have to find a cure or write a best seller to have an impact. Your journey may be creating a better community. Finding a fulfilling job. Gaining independence. Whether you want to change the world or change your world, in LAS you’ll be empowered to do achieve today what you couldn’t even imagine yesterday.
Whatever you’re curious about, whatever you’re interested in, there is a place for you in LAS.
Advising throughout the College of LAS supports the academic, personal, and professional development of every student.
