Colleges & Universities that Provide Humanities Degrees
The field of liberal arts is another traditional term used in education and has its beginnings long ago in the Greek and Roman Empires. Liberal arts means an education centered on rational thought and the development of intellectual reasoning. It usually also means a more comprehensive educational experience, rather than one focused or specialized on one specific area, like a vocational training program.
In history, the term liberal arts meant to properly educate a free person. In the 5th century AD, a liberal arts education would have included grammar, dialectic, geometry, arithmetic, astronomy, music, and rhetoric. Throughout the history of western civilization, many famous individuals have been educated around this academic core, thus the liberal arts education has also become the core of many traditional colleges and universities today.
