Liberal arts colleges have religious and theological studies as one of their main areas of study. Inherently multi-disciplinary, religious and theological studies are an excellent example of the liberal arts approach that combines humanities, arts, social and natural sciences in order to build a solid undergraduate educational foundation.

While the liberal arts have been studied since classical antiquity, the tradition of specific liberal arts colleges in the US began in the early 1800's, and today there are still over 200 liberal arts colleges across the United States. These may be gender-specific, secular, religiously-affiliated, public, private, residential, rural, urban, independent or part of a larger university. What they share, however, is the dedication to a student-centered undergraduate education that aims to stimulate both intellectual and personal growth so that graduates are well-rounded citizens ready for a wide variety of possible careers.

So if you're looking for a program in religious and theological studies that is at once intimate and broad-reaching, then a liberal arts college degree may be for you!
