COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES
The UNE College of Arts and Sciences offers a broad spectrum of academic programs in the tradition of a
liberal arts education. Each of our majors promotes knowledge and understanding of the world and provides
perspectives on issues from multiple viewpoints. Students actively explore both the natural and social worlds
through a broad-based mode of inquiry that fosters empathy and understanding. This pursuit of knowledge
and caring for the world is at the center of the mission of the College of Arts and Sciences and prepares
graduates for a rewarding, productive life, as well as for career or graduate school success.

The excellence of our faculty combined with our unique location on the southern Maine coast provides the
setting for a compelling learning environment. Across our undergraduate degree programs and in select
graduate programs, we pride ourselves on high quality teaching in classes that provide opportunities for
frequent, personal student-faculty interactions. We also believe deeply in research, creative expression,
internships, and study abroad, as these experiences embody the ideal of a college education.

UNE College of Arts and Sciences students graduate as intellectually engaged, globally aware, creative, and
civically and environmentally responsible individuals who apply their education as a gateway to unyielding
inquiry, professional achievement, and life-long learning.
