Since 1888, Puget Sound has been dedicated to providing our students with a well-rounded liberal arts education. Our interdisciplinary education approach prepares students to be engaged citizens, problem solvers, and entrepreneurs. A liberal arts education grounds you in a broad understanding of the arts, sciences, and humanities and challenges you to use critical thinking, academic and experiential learning, and a wide array of intellectual skills to address the issues of an increasingly complex world.
Why does a liberal arts education matter?
Puget Sound’s focus on liberal arts education means we put students first. Our students benefit from small class sizes designed to foster deeper discussion and experiential learning opportunities like research projects and study abroad programs that connect what you learn in the classroom to real-world problems across disciplines. A liberal arts education prepares you for life and helps you pursue a life of purpose.
