Overview

Our degree in Liberal Arts and Sciences is a wonderful opportunity for first-class students with wide cultural, academic and professional interests to turn curiosity and creativity into the ability to analyse and contextualise, to communicate and lead.

Students choose a primary group (Arts, Social Science or Natural and Life Science) which remains the same throughout their degree. A different secondary group is also chosen, which may be changed every semester.

Each semester two modules are taken from the primary group and one from the secondary, in addition to a compulsory Liberal Arts and Sciences module exploring research, interdisciplinary and professional skills.

Alternatively, these three groups are subdivided into seven disciplinary pathways which you can follow if you prefer a more structured approach to your studies.

This prestigious new programme demonstrates our commitment to a liberal education that gives you both academic and professional experiences. It involves in-depth research-based study set in a broad context of interdisciplinary knowledge, underpinned by Surrey’s unique approach to personal and professional development.‬‬

‭We have built this degree around our pioneering expertise in personal development and Professional Training to form a programme for gifted, ambitious students that is quite unlike any other in the country. ‬‬‬‬‬

We will develop your ability to look at important issues in their proper context and – on the basis of evidence, insight and reason – to make informed links between different academic disciplines and modes of thought.

‭Most importantly, you will be equipped with the skills and capabilities to engage with new situations. Our degree prepares you to face ever-changing professional environments and the new challenges they will bring, thus giving you an edge over graduates with a less ample suite of attributes.‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬
