The Liberal Arts program is recommended for students who are undecided about which concentration to choose. This program offers students an organized approach to a liberal arts education with exposure to a wide variety of subject areas. Students may elect to concentrate their studies in humanities, mathematics, physical education, social sciences, or natural sciences. Many employers in professions such as education, law, medicine, economics, and journalism prefer that individuals have the broad educational background provided by a liberal arts program. In order to facilitate transfer to a baccalaureate program in Massachusetts public institutions, Roxbury Community College’s General Education program in Liberal Arts has been designed to fulfill the requirements of the Commonwealth Transfer Compact. NOTE: Students who intend to transfer to a four-year college or university should consider the requirements of that institution before selecting their courses. For more information, contact the Division of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences, Room 3-301.
