We are committed to placing disciplinary expertise within a broader liberal arts context in order to encourage the creative and analytic thinking that comes with interdisciplinary thought. We expect all of our graduates to be able to access and evaluate information with reason and evidence, and to effectively communicate about that information to diverse audiences. In the Macricostas\u00a0School of Arts and Sciences, we believe that a liberal arts education is outstanding preparation for a productive and rewarding life.<\/p>\n Objectives<\/p>\n To meet these objectives<\/p>\n The Macricostas School of Arts and Sciences plays a central role in the education of every student at Western Connecticut State University. Whether through the foundations in our general education curriculum<\/strong><\/a> or the depth of knowledge provided by our major programs<\/strong><\/a>, we are committed to creating outstanding learning opportunities for all.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Associate in Science<\/p>\n AS-Liberal Arts <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Bachelor of Arts<\/p>\n BA- American Studies<\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n BA-Anthropology\/Sociology<\/strong> BA-Biology<\/strong> BA-Chemistry<\/strong> BA-Communication<\/strong> BA-Applied Computing<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n BA-Contract Major<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n BA-Earth and Planetary Sciences<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n BA-Digital & Interactive Media Arts (DIMA)<\/a> BA-English<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n BA-History<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n BA-Mathematics<\/strong> BA-Interdisciplinary Studies<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n BA-Media Arts<\/strong> BA-Political Science BA-Professional Writing<\/strong> BA-Social Sciences<\/strong> BA-Spanish<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Bachelor of Science<\/p>\n BS-Computer Science<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n BS-Contract Major<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n BS-Meteorology<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n The Macricostas School of Arts and Sciences supports the Bachelor of Science (BS), elementary and secondary education, through course content in the following areas:<\/p>\n See School of Professional Studies for more information on the Education degree programs.<\/p>\n Admissions<\/p>\n
