Students are offered the time and space to explore different areas of study and interest, while building Stage one degree requirements, before settling on their degree of choice in Year two or three. The requirement to study in different subject areas gives students a broad intellectual perspective on their undergraduate education and challenges them to understand that there are many ways to research and ultimately understand the world around them. This breadth of study in the natural and social sciences, arts, and business is intended to enrich the undergraduate experience and complement intensive study in the students’ majors.

Liberal Arts & Sciences Degree Program 2015/16

The UCD Liberal Arts & Sciences Program is a four year degree that mirrors the American university educational system. Students are offered the time and space to explore different areas of study and interest, while building Stage one degree requirements, before settling on their degree of choice in Year two or three. The requirement to study in different subject areas gives students a broad intellectual perspective on their undergraduate education and challenges them to understand that there are many ways to research and ultimately understand the world around them. This breadth of study in the natural and social sciences, arts, and business is intended to enrich the undergraduate experience and complement intensive study in the students’ majors. Through this process, students have the opportunity to discover subjects and ideas that may become lifetime interests, or that offer the creative stimulus to view their chosen degree from different perspectives. Architecture (Bachelor of Architectural Science), Arts (Bachelor of Arts), Social Science (Bachelor of Social Science), and Business (Bachelor of Commerce) degrees can be declared at the end of your second year at UCD. If your choice is a Science (Bachelor of Science) degree, this must be declared at the end of first year.
