What our students say
Connie Morgan, BA Liberal Arts
"I have found that the Liberal Arts programme is not only preparing me to make a living, but also to make a life.
The self-expression, critical thinking, empathy and creativity that the subject encourages motivates me to think for myself, as my intellectual and conceptual capacity is increasing."
Jasmine Akin, BA Liberal Arts
“Liberal Arts allows me to curate my degree following personalised interests rather than sticking to pre-chosen discipline-specific topics.
I can pursue interests through multiple subjects rather than having to decide which ones to sacrifice.”
