Dear friends, alumni, colleagues and students,
The College of Arts and Sciences, home to more than a dozen high-quality programs and the university’s general education program, constitutes a hub of interdisciplinary innovation and cutting-edge research. COAS offers exceptional degree programs at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, preparing students for successful careers in industry, government and public service. All COAS courses, whether in required courses or in service of general education, create well-rounded students with essential skills to communicate effectively, assess information from multiple viewpoints, deal with complexity and lead diverse teams. Our students gain a comprehensive understanding of the world, foresee trends, and embrace an innovative future. Our alumni are distinguished leaders in their respective fields and attribute their leadership abilities to personal interactions with our inspiring faculty. To provide students with exceptional leadership skills, we strive to expand student involvement in projects, research, internships, engaged learning and study abroad experiences. To meet these goals, we need to establish and grow scholarships and project funding, as well as bolster faculty and research labs to advance research. But these things cannot be accomplished in a vacuum.
Please join me in supporting the next generation of leaders by becoming an integral part of our COAS family and our story.
