With an enthusiastic faculty and an intellectually diverse and stimulating curriculum, the Department of Liberal Studies is committed to providing its students with the best educational experience possible. Members in the Liberal Studies Department are outstanding teachers and scholars whose interdisciplinary work spans across fields such as Social and Cultural Studies, communication studies, Life Skills, English, Kiswahili & Ethnic studies among others.

We believe that the best education is one that is self-motivated and self-directed. Our goal is to help students explore the topics and questions that intrigue and excite them, as part of a lifelong project of developing personal awareness and worldly acumen. Accordingly, the Department is committed to giving students the opportunity to focus their studies on selected subjects of interest to them and to explore how interdisciplinary investigation can illuminate them. We invite you to join us in the exciting future that awaits you in the Department of Liberal Studies.
