About the College of Arts & Sciences

Our faculty are more than educators; they are pioneers and thought leaders in their respective fields. Committed to student success, they bring their expertise into the classroom, encouraging students to explore new ideas, challenge established norms, and engage actively with the world around them. Under their mentorship, students participate in award-winning research, creative endeavors, and impactful community engagement initiatives that address complex societal challenges and push the boundaries of knowledge.

The College of Arts and Sciences is a vibrant community where discovery and creativity flourish. Here, students are inspired to embark on a journey of academic exploration, pursue innovative research, and make a meaningful impact in their communities. Whether you're a prospective student, current student, alumni, or community partner, you'll find an environment that is both welcoming and inspiring—where discovery is not just an aspiration, but a way of life.

The College of Arts and Sciences has three divisions: The Humanities, the Social Sciences, and the Natural and Mathematical Sciences. Its governance structure includes its administrative officers, four Councils (the Executive Council, the Heads Council, the Undergraduate Directors Council, and the Graduate Directors Council), the committees and faculty. The dean is the administrative head and educational leader of the College.  The Councils advise and assist the dean on implementing the recommendations of the Senate and on undertaking initiatives of the dean’s office.
