Liberal Arts and Sciences 

Cultivating the Mind and Ability to Learn 

Liberal arts is a general term for subjects such as the humanities and social sciences, languages, natural sciences, and mathematics that are taught in the general education curriculum at universities. Liberal Arts and Sciences aim to develop students’ ability to learn, to cultivate a flexible and resilient mind, and to nurture the fundamental capabilities needed to create a better future through education in these fields. 
The advancement of science and technology is impossible without the power of mathematics. At the same time, in an age of uncertainty, in order to calmly grasp reality, to carve out one’s own life, and to be able to think from the standpoint of others, a broad cultural education is indispensable. English is essential for playing an active role on a global stage. We seek to cultivate individuals who will continue to learn these fields independently throughout their lives and who will contribute to enhancing the well-being of people around the world.
