What will I learn?

Earn a General Education Degree and Expand Your Knowledge and Opportunities

A well-rounded education is vital for living a more rewarding life, and in preparing you for further study in a major field of specialization. National University’s Associate of Arts in General Education program provides the building blocks for your intellectual growth with instruction on English and mathematical skills, as well as the humanities, information literacy, science, and social science disciplines.

Your general education curriculum will begin with a focus on writing and speech, then expand to develop your abstract reasoning capabilities through courses in mathematics and informational literacy. Finally, you’ll explore the natural sciences, humanities, fine arts, language, and the social and behavioural sciences. Throughout many of these courses, the instruction will include an examination of the human condition in a multicultural society.

Pursuing an associate of arts in general education is an opportunity for discovery and self-improvement on its own, but it also serves as an introduction to and foundation for areas of study you may want to explore further. It prepares you for a more insightful, rewarding life, whether you aspire to additional education or not.
