In the School of Liberal Arts, students experience the diversity of George Brown College. Critical thinking skills are developed using various formats including lectures, seminars, placements and online learning. Students from all areas of the college take courses at the School of Liberal Arts, so students are exposed to a wide network of people who will go on to become significant business and social contacts. The Liberal Arts faculty is comprised of a combination of industry professionals and full-time academics. A range of dynamic speakers add to the classroom experience.
