Liberal Arts

"It is not so very important for a person to learn facts. For that he does not really need a college. He can learn them from books. The value of an education in a liberal arts college is not learning of many facts but the training of the mind to think something that cannot be learned from textbooks."

Albert Einstein, American Physicist (1879-1955)

Why Liberal Arts?

The Liberal Arts major at Colorado Christian University is ideal for those who would like to teach or anyone seeking to be trained in a variety of subject matters. A Liberal Arts degree prepares students for further study in graduate school and opens up a limitless number of career opportunities.

Liberal Arts in the Christian University

Looking for a well-rounded degree where you’ll get a taste of just about everything higher education has to offer? The liberal arts major is an interdisciplinary program designed to provide a broad exploration of the ideas, values, issues, and heritage of civilization. Throughout the program, students develop a broad understanding of the arts and sciences, how they relate, and their integration with Christian thought.

Liberal Arts Emphases

Students who major in Liberal Arts may select one or more emphases in General Studies, Literature, or Philosophy. In each of these functional areas, students learn about the latest developments in the field with the added value of learning how to integrate faith, learning, and living.
