Beloit 和 the Liberal Arts
Beloit’s br和 of the liberal arts produces graduates who are prepared for successful futures 和 meaningful lives.
What is a liberal arts education?
- Assessing a problem from multiple angles. And then solving it.
- Learning to conduct research. And publishing your findings while still a student.
- Finding evidence to make a compelling argument. And winning it.
- Talking less, listening more to present ideas clearly 和 concisely.
- Creating something — a mural, 一个乐队, a social contract, a start-up — that also helps the people around you.
These skills (和 so many more) are foundational to a well-rounded, 好奇的, 勇敢的, 和 entrepreneurial college student — the very definition of a 贝洛伊特.
“We’re in the business of creating human potential,” President Eric Boynton says of Beloit’s approach. “We’re here to transform lives 和 prepare our students for their successful futures 和 meaningful careers.”
The liberal arts at Beloit College
Meaningful experiences
It’s about taking a 化学 class you weren’t sure you’d be into 和 discovering how it connects to your gr和ma’s favorite recipes. It’s about talking to your 社会学 professor about turning a topic into your own research project — 和 presenting that project to your peers, 导师, 和朋友. It’s about trying out for a college theatre production on a whim, discovering your people in your fellow actors.
Real skills
这些都是 human skills — skills that challenge you to learn in every nook 和 cranny of Beloit College: in the classroom 和 on the field, over coffee-fueled study sessions 和 during 跳舞 彩排.
Flexibility to pursue your interests
Around a third of 贝洛伊特s end up double majoring, 和 many others have a minor or two (or three!). You will find unique intersections between your interests in creative writing 和 Japanese language, health 和 society 和 历史. And the opportunities to explore them all — while you dive deeper into that thing that you decide is your thing.
Not just learning, but doing
Before you even step foot on campus — within 72 hours of committing to Beloit College, in fact — you are connected with an advisor who will guide you through your first two years of college. From there, you’ll find lab partners, roommates, work supervisors, sorority siblings, community members, 和 best friends who will challenge how you think about the world.
From the moment you arrive to long beyond your graduation, Career Works helps you navigate your pathway, from connecting with a 学校 to pursuing an internship to learning how to tell your story, so that employers 和 graduate programs take notice.
At Beloit, we help you find the way, 和 be more prepared for whatever lies ahead. See for yourself by visiting or applying to Beloit.
