Description
At Albion, academics are not just about taking one class and then taking another and another. At Albion, we believe that what you learn in one class has implications for another...that what one professor tells you about geology can be applied to your ceramics class, that what another professor tells you about film can be applied to history. That is what Liberal Arts is all about!The Liberal Arts core serves as the context for lifelong learning, preparing students for the phase of their life after college when they must provide education and expertise as well as continue to learn!
Your academic major will give you the knowledge and skills you need for entering a career or graduate or professional school. Your major represents about one-third of the courses you'll take at Albion, leaving you plenty of room to sample other areas. If your interests range across many fields, you can opt for an individually designed major, with faculty approval. Albion students have recently designed their own majors in: human resources, cultural journalism, media arts management, business communications, photojournalism, sport management, and public health.
At Albion, learning takes place as much out of the classroom as in, and we encourage all students to get involved. Our co-curricular activities offer students a wide array of fine arts, athletics, entertainment, and service opportunities. No matter where you are—in the classroom, on the sports field, in the Coffee House, or halfway around the world—you’ll see Liberal Arts at Work for you.
