Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies

Endicott’s unique Liberal Studies major provides students with an individualized program of study and exceptional career preparation. Students choose a concentration in American Studies, Education, or Law and Government. They may also design and apply to pursue an Individually Designed program of study. Each concentration emphasizes a significant aspect of American social, cultural, and historical life and provides students with a broad understanding of the academic and professional aspects of their fields. Concentrations also allow students to develop an expertise that can be supplemented with courses chosen from other fields. The result is a major tailored to the student’s professional interests and goals.

While students develop an impressive knowledge base through their coursework, they also gain practical job experience through internships. Internship opportunities in the Liberal Studies major are limitless and can include working in human service agencies, corporations, government bureaus, publishing houses, health departments, libraries, and museums. The Liberal Studies program is the most versatile and individualized of Endicott’s majors and meets the professional aims of a wide range of students.

Students interested in becoming licensed public school teachers complete the Liberal Studies majors with a concentration in early childhood or elementary education.  This program leads to licensure in the state of Massachusetts. For more information, please see the School of Education section of the catalog.
