Why Literature?
From practical creative writing workshops to in-depth research classes, the Literature major at AUBG offers all that's necessary to equip you with the highly valued writing skills, critical thinking abilities, and creative mindset that are a must for any successful career.
Why Liberal Arts?
Liberal Arts is not reserved for art students only. At AUBG, for example, we have a variety of majors and minors spanning from Business Administration to Computer Science, and we make sure that you get a solid understanding and in-depth knowledge in the field you choose to study. What differentiates Liberal Arts from other types of degrees, however, is that in addition to that, it gives you the freedom to explore, create, practice your skills and connect to others.
