According to a recent Pew report, as robots, automation, and artificial intelligence perform more tasks and there is massive disruption of jobs, there will be an increased focus on cultivating human skills that AI and machines can't duplicate. The report went on to note that workers of the future must learn to deeply cultivate and exploit creativity, collaborative activity, abstract and systems thinking, complex communication, and the ability to thrive in diverse environments.

​

A Georgetown liberal studies education—one based in the traditions of some of the world’s greatest philosophers and teachers—provides you with instruction in multiple disciplines and prepares you to dissect complex questions, analyze nuanced problems, and develop creative and well-reasoned solutions.

 

As a student in the Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies program, you’ll join motivated learners seeking to advance their understanding of the world and develop the tools they need to reach their life goals.

 

Whether you have previous college experience or are starting your bachelor’s for the first time, you’ll join students from a wide variety of backgrounds and professions. Some have been out of school for decades, while others were more recently enrolled. Whatever reason students had to put their education aside, they come to Georgetown’s program ready to complete their educational journey. The diversity of our student body contributes to an enriching and engaging classroom experience, in which you’ll have the opportunity to learn with—and from—your peers.
