Preparing students for life after graduation
The Liberal Arts program provides the traditional course of study in literature and language arts. Through nine “blocks” of study, students gain experience reading, writing, and researching in the field of English, allowing for both a wide overview of literary history and in-depth studies of specific periods, writers, and critical approaches.
The track’s 37 hours in upper level literature and language equip students for life after graduation.
Create, Engage, Thrive
Liberal Arts students take their skills to the campus community. Our majors can practice their talents, gain valuable work experience, and apply what they’ve learned by becoming a part of some of our clubs, events, and campus services.

- Edit, write, publish with Snow Island Review, FMU’s literary and arts magazine, publishing work by students.
