Message from the Dean

 

Welcome to Park University’s College of Liberal Arts & Sciences. 

Park University is an institution with multiple academic programs and campus centers, providing academic instruction through various means. However, we believe that the core of Park University is the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. 

Since its inception, Park University has been a liberal arts college with the emphasis on experiential learning.  Today we carry on that tradition through innovative programs in the fine and performing arts, the humanities, and the natural and social sciences. 

The College is made up of faculty and students in fourteen departments and numerous other curricular and extracurricular programs.
