One Thousand Days Transformed - The Campaign for Cedarville

Why Is it Important for You to Study the Arts and Humanities in College?

#1

Studying the arts and humanities helps you develop critical thinking, 沟通, 以及解决问题的能力.

通过接触不同的观点, 分析文本和艺术, and interpreting cultural phenomena all from a biblical worldview, you learn to think deeply and critically about the world around you. These skills are highly transferable and valuable in any career path you choose. Studies show that the average worker will change 工作 anywhere from 10 to 15 times over the course of their career. That's why it's so important to be adaptable and prepared to navigate these changes. This means developing a strong foundation of transferable skills—and critical thinking, 沟通, and problem-solving are at the top of the list!


#2

The arts and humanities help you understand and appreciate the complexity of the human experience.

学习文学, 哲学, 历史, and the arts helps Christians gain insight into the diverse cultures, 信仰, 以及构成我们世界的价值观. This broadened understanding will help you become a more informed and empathetic citizen, able to engage meaningfully and share the Gospel with the people you encounter.


#3

The arts and humanities help you explore your creativity and cultivate your appreciation for the beauty of God's handiwork.

You'll discover how a distinctly biblical worldview values beauty and encourages creativity for the glory of God. Studying and creating art and literature can be a deeply enriching and satisfying experience offering a unique kind of intellectual and emotional fulfillment that provides meaning and purpose in your life beyond your chosen career.
