Program Design
The Liberal Studies master's degree incorporates online courses with several (usually 2-3) weekend Residencies. The degree is highly individualized and provides two program options: 30 credits (10 3-credit courses) or 36 credits (12 3-credit courses). Your program begins with two courses that provide the tools you need to understand and adopt the perspectives of multiple disciplines. These are followed by a series of electives that you can design or select, culminating in a unique final project.
