Field of Study:Liberal Arts and Sciences/Liberal Studies
Description:One of the joys of being in university is having time to broaden your horizons, discover new interests, and get involved in a range of extracurricular activities. Liberal Studies gives you that freedom. You can explore many different subjects in the humanities, social sciences, languages and cultures, and fine and performing arts - plus courses you?d like to take from some of Waterloo's other faculties. You can add focus to your degree with a minor or minors, or keep it completely general. (And if you do fall passionately in love with a subject along the way, you can switch into a major at any point.) An academic advisor can help you plan your degree and choose courses.
