We develop problem solvers, creative thinkers and doers in Philadelphia — the nation's fifth largest city. We are #templemade.
With 35 undergraduate majors, 36 minors, 23 certificate programs and 15 graduate programs, the College of Liberal Arts — the second largest college at Temple — plays a tremendous role in the University’s academic success. We provide the general education requirements for undergraduate students from all schools and colleges, and with thousands of students walking the halls of Anderson, Gladfelter and Weiss, it is paramount that the College of Liberal Arts offers the most diverse courses and enriching interdisciplinary programs.
The mission of the College of Liberal Arts mirrors both the historical importance of the liberal arts in society and the principles on which Temple University was founded. The College is committed to the discovery and transmission of knowledge, academic excellence, innovative research, access and opportunity for academically talented students, and community service. The College strives to prepare students for citizenship and careers, to create the foundation for a lifetime of learning, and to teach students essential skills — reading critically, thinking carefully, communicating effectively, appreciating diversity, and tolerating ambiguity — across the liberal arts disciplines. A liberal arts education from Temple helps students realize their aspirations and prepares them to meet the ever-changing cultural, intellectual and economic demands of our society.
