Description:
The Master of Arts in Liberal Studies will cultivate understanding of ideas,
questions, and works from the liberal arts tradition. Exploring various
approaches to studies of the arts and sciences will complement students'
attempts to create and discover meaning in their personal and professional
lives. Students will broaden their understanding of ways to use knowledge
from the liberal arts tradition to enrich the lives of individuals and to
inform social action. Students who are serving in leadership roles in
nonprofit organizations, churches, schools, and businesses can select
courses which expand their understanding of core areas of theology and the
practical implications of these concepts for the ministries and human
services. Exploring Scripture and ways to guide others as they study and
derive spiritual nourishment from Scripture will complement the development
of understanding of the ecumenical dimensions of the Christian tradition.
Students will deepen their sense of their own spirituality and their
understanding of the moral teachings of the Church, especially with regard
to social justice. Administrative responsibilities of leaders in churches
and nonprofit organizations can be studied.
