Delaware Valley College has long subscribed to the belief that a college education, even in a technologically-oriented program, should emphasize the development of communicative skills and a critical understanding of our social, economic, political and cultural heritage.
The Liberal Arts curriculum at Delaware Valley College exposes students to the richness, diversity and complexity of human history, promotes and increased self-awareness and concern for the role of the individual in society, develops students’ ability to communicate effectively and encourages artistic expression. Our courses, many of which are required as part of the college’s Core Curriculum, encompass the fields of history, sociology, psychology, philosophy, speech, foreign languages, music and art.
