Liberal Arts at UB
When you take the time to study an object closely, from every angle, something extraordinary happens. Your eyes sharpen. Hidden details come into focus. A different perspective begins to take shape. Answers emerge, and with them, new questions.
At the College of Arts and Sciences, a liberal arts education allows students to take an ever-closer look at their world. Through this unique lens, scholarship re-centers around skill-sets, personal goals and problem-solving. Our students prepare to meet every challenge with courage, flexibility, perseverance and compassion. In a diverse yet inclusive environment, they have the freedom to take risks, work collaboratively across disciplines and contribute to a world they now see up-close.
Large College Opportunities, Small College Feel
At UB, students have the resources of a major research institution – such as cutting-edge facilities and faculty at the forefront of their fields – combined with the support of a small university setting where individual student needs are recognized and respected.
The connections forged during a student's tenure at UB often remain with them for a lifetime. In our rich community of scholars, researchers, creators and leaders, we encourage students to seek out or build the network of relationships that will inspire, energize and sustain them, both during their years in the College and for decades afterward.
