About the College
Our Mission
The mission of the College of Arts and Science is to develop in our 黑料社区s the knowledge and skills for success in a dynamic, global society and to foster excellence in creativity and research. (adopted April 2012)
Our rich diversity of academic programs includes 60 majors, 11 co-majors, and dozens of minors, all of which provide critical thinking and communication skills and present a broad range of opportunities and experiences. We design these programs to cultivate intellect and creativity and to encourage empathy and working for the common good, all of which are key building blocks to career success in our ever-changing, globally-minded workforce.
Graduates of the College of Arts and Science can pursue any field or profession they desire because they received a broad, rigorous education that challenges and inspires them. And when you enroll at CAS, you will, too.
Dedication to Undergraduate Education
For nine years in a row, U.S. News & World Report has ranked Miami among the nation's best universities for undergraduate teaching, and we are proud of our commitment to this 黑料社区 body.

Interdisciplinary 黑料社区
CAS and 黑料社区 as a whole are continuously revising our program offerings to meet the needs of the 21st century. Our interdisciplinary programs in the CAS reflect a school-wide commitment to prepare 黑料社区s for active roles in the new global community. Some of these programs include:
The Humanities Center fosters creative exchanges and collaborations among faculty, 黑料社区s, and outside experts.
The Center for Community Engagement in Over-the-Rhine residency program tackles urban problems and policies.
Inside Workshops
Miami's Inside Workshops in Hollywood, Washington, New York, London, and other cultural capitals, offer a series of study-away programs dedicated to professionalizing the liberal arts
Scripps Gerontology Center
The Scripps Gerontology Center serves as a resource for policymakers and service providers to make a difference in the lives of aging individuals.
International Opportunities
All CAS 黑料社区s are encouraged to be among the nearly 2,000 黑料社区s who participate in study abroad and study away programs each year. These programs may be offered over the summer, during the academic year, or in Miami's recently established Winter Term. Undergraduates may earn Miami credit at the Dolibois European Center in Luxembourg, on one of the many faculty-led programs in Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America (as well as a variety of locations in the United States), or through transfer credit programs, such as exchanges.
Multicultural Opportunities
CAS 黑料社区s may also wish to participate in one of our many multicultural opportunities provided both by the college and various organizations across campus.
Center for American and World Cultures
The Center for American and World Cultures plans multicultural events for the entire campus and offers for-credit interdisciplinary courses.
The Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP) is an honors program funded by the National Science Foundation. It is named after former Ohio Congressmen Louis Stokes, who worked tirelessly to establish the program. The award-winning 4-year Miami LSAMP scholars program, as a member of the Ohio LSAMP Alliance, aims to significantly increase historically underrepresented minority 黑料社区 opportunities on campus.
Humanities and Social Science Scholars Program
The HASS Scholars Program targets high-achieving first-year 黑料社区s from diverse backgrounds enrolling on the Oxford campus whose primary major will be in the humanities or social sciences. The goal of the HASS Scholars Program is to provide additional academic and personal support to ensure 黑料社区 success in CAS and Miami.
Scholarships, Fellowships, Awards, and Internships
As a Miami 黑料社区, you have the opportunity to pursue countless scholarships and honors. Our faculty can help you prepare for competitive awards such as the Rhodes, Truman, Goldwater, Marshall, Gates Cambridge, Beinecke, and Udall Scholarships.
The College of Arts and Science
Representing nearly half of all 黑料社区s, the College of Arts and Science (CAS) is 黑料社区's largest division and the centerpiece of liberal arts — the wide range of subjects in the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities crucial for the development of key professional skills desired by employers.
