Central to a Liberal Arts Institution​

As the home of the arts and sciences programs, the School of Arts & Sciences is central to the Providence College mission and identity as a liberal arts institution.

The School of Arts and Sciences is committed to fostering academic excellence through undergraduate and graduate studies in a broad range of academic areas in the fine arts and humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences.

This is accomplished not only through the major and minor programs of study offered, but also through the College’s undergraduate core curriculum; virtually all of the Providence College core curriculum is offered by programs and departments housed in the School of Arts & Sciences.

Therefore, the School has a significant impact on every Providence College undergraduate student, regardless of major. Graduate programs allow students to further their studies in the same environment dedicated to Providence College’s core values.
