Liberal arts refers to a broad, interdisciplinary approach to higher education encompassing the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and arts, intended to develop critical thinking, communication, and well-rounded knowledge rather than narrow vocational training. Students in liberal arts programs typically study subjects like literature, philosophy, history, mathematics, and the sciences before or in place of specialized professional coursework. The tradition traces back to classical antiquity and remains central to many college curricula, particularly in the United States.
