The College of Arts & Sciences is the home of both traditional and innovative programs in the humanities, fine arts and sciences. Because intellectual flexibility is demanded by 21st Century careers, we've made the development of crucial skills like communication, critical thinking and collaboration the cornerstone of our programs. We also combine solid disciplinary understanding with practical applications through applied learning experiences.

The College also supports several initiatives to enhance students' educational experiences and career preparation. These include the Lugar Academy, through which students can participate in high-level internships in Washington, D.C., and student-run agencies, like Top Dog Communication, which allow students to gain practical experience by working with local organizations. On-campus labs, like the Archeology & Forensics Laboratory and the Indiana Prehistory Laboratory, offer students unique research and study opportunities.
