Students who choose to major in Liberal Arts have the distinct advantage of already having made a decision about pursuing a bachelor's degree at a four-year institution. NCC offers two opportunities for these students: take elective courses in various departments, or take advantage of any of the eight concentrations available:
English
Environmental Studies
History
Philosophy
Political Science
Psychology
Sociology
Women's & Gender Studies
Each of many electives offered through the Liberal Arts program builds confidence and critical thinking in students seeking to transfer. Further, the communication skills learned throughout the program are useful not only in the workplace, but also in society.
To stay on track, students following one of the Liberal Arts concentrations should begin taking courses in that concentration during the first year of the program.

Those who study liberal arts can pursue a range of careers. People who can learn quickly and solve problems tend to succeed, no matter the workplace. Liberal arts majors who are passionate about their studies are at an advantage in the job market, experts say. Interest in the classroom often translates to eagerness in a job search and enthusiasm in an interview. And the ability to confidently articulate their ideas-a hallmark of liberal arts training-may be these jobseekers' best justification of all for having chosen their major.
