We
are pleased to bring the website of the College of Arts and Sciences
to current and prospective students, alumni, and friends. With
it we hope to communicate the vision and perspective of the College,
its ten academic departments, and its thirty-plus degree programs.
We invite you to visit us, either in person or via the web pages,
and to explore the opportunities for quality education that are
available in the College of Arts and Sciences.
The
heart of the College is the energy and activity of a community
of scholars consisting of 1500 undergraduate and graduate majors,
120 full-time faculty, 20 staff members, 80 adjunct part-time
faculty, and a host of successful alumni serving in responsible
positions in Coastal Georgia, and across the state, the nation
and the world.

In
our community are world-class teachers.
Over the past decade faculty members from the College of Arts
and Sciences have received teaching awards from disciplinary
organizations, the University System of Georgia, and the council
for the Advancement and Support of Education. |

In our community
are some excellent scholars.
Over the past three years we have collectively published enough
books and articles to fill a shelf in the library and have
responded to invitations to address academic audiences across
the country. |

In our community
are some distinguished alumni
… senior executives in computer firms from Austin to
Boston, from Silicon Valley to Research Triangle Park…
award-winning high school teachers from Savannah to Atlanta
and all points in between …distinguished university professors
in academic postings such as Rice and Baylor and Medical College
of Georgia … and hundreds of alumni in leadership positions
in corporations, law firms, government offices, and medical
practices across the Coastal Empire and the Southeast. |
However,
we are most proud of the accomplishments of our students. Not
only do they distinguish themselves in on-campus classrooms, laboratories,
and performances but on a regular basis depart from campus to
win awards and praise as they present their work in state and
regional venues.
If
you are presently part of this community, we celebrate your past
contributions and look forward to joining you in our future work
together. If you are not yet part of the community, we invite
you to learn more and then join us in our important work.
