The Liberal Arts at Antioch College

Antioch College recognizes that the future is intersectional and that many disciplines and skills will need to be blended in creating solutions. In our curriculum, students design their own pathways to the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees through our five interdisciplinary focus areas.

Our curriculum is built on four academic divisions—the Arts, Humanities, Sciences, and Social Sciences—and is composed of general education coursework, the Cooperative Education Program and related courses, a proficiency-based foreign language requirement, major-related coursework, and additional curricular and co-curricular experiences.

Antioch faculty members offer courses in a range of academic disciplines, including but not limited to:

Experiential Learning

Antioch graduates are prepared with the knowledge and skills to be effective in the world through classroom learning, experiential education, and deep engagement with the community. Our students come to college not to retreat but rather to engage with the world. They do that here in Yellow Springs, in diverse communities across the country, and around the world. Our experiential education program features independent work experience or co-op (some of which is related to a student’s major), embedded education, and cross-cultural and linguistic immersion experiences.
