General Education at Clarion University 

The baccalaureate degree programs of Clarion University are designed to provide students with both a specialized and a liberal education. Through a specialized education, students obtain some depth of knowledge in an academic discipline and perhaps in a career area. Through a liberal education, students develop a basis and a context both for their specialized studies and for their lives within and beyond the university.

The philosophy of the general education program at Clarion University is that general education is enabling education. At its best, general education enables students to develop academic skills; acquire liberal knowledge; shape individual values; and apply all three (skills, knowledge, and values) in their academic, professional, personal, and societal lives.
