A Horizon-Expanding Education

Discover what you're good at—and why that's good for the world.

Students in the McAnulty College and Graduate School of Liberal Arts have a strong sense of what they want to do. They benefit from the depth, discipline and sense of purpose they develop and refine as they work with faculty to develop their specific path.

You can choose from more than 30 undergraduate majors and minors and nearly two dozen graduate and certificate programs—or combine them in a plan that's meaningful for your goals.

Explore the departments and find information about academic programs, faculty, procedures, requirements, student activities and opportunities.

The entire University also looks forward to the launch of the Bridges Common Learning Experience in the upcoming fall. While it encompasses all areas of study at Duquesne in some way, its heart is in the liberal arts.

Dukes With Bigger Goals

Meet Maria Paula Quintero Arteta

Double major in International Relations and Communication Studies

Raised in Cartagena, Colombia, the soon-to-be Summa Cum Laude graduate spent a large portion of her time on the Bluff helping other students feel more connected to the campus community. Both on and off campus, Maria Paula understood that equity and opportunity could begin with her. She was naturally open to the lives and journeys of others and determined she could do her part of creating a future everyone could share in.
