Hosting 16 departments with 31 major programs, the College of the Pacific is the liberal arts core of the university offering courses in the natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, and the fine and performing arts.
"Knowing how to write decently, knowing how to think critically, how to ask the right questions, to understand systems, to look for holes, to have a low threshold for indignation 鈥 that's the kind of stuff that comes from having a liberal arts degree."
鈥擣reelance journalist Makana Eyre '12

We work hard to prevent our students from feeling 鈥渓ost鈥 in the College of the Pacific. At every step we provide one-on-one faculty advising, small class sizes and accessible academic support services.
