Master of Arts [M.A] Liberal Studies
The UD MALS program is designed specifically for returning adult students who want to earn their degrees through part-time study. Courses are offered in the evenings for the convenience of those who are working. Program staff and faculty are sensitive to the needs of students with busy lives with outside responsibilities.
An introductory course and core courses ensure that MALS students at UD get to know each other well. Combined with the relatively small size of the program and many extracurricular options, the outcome is a strong student cohort. Many students mention forming lifelong friendships with their fellow students.
