Quaternity – B.A. in Liberal Studies, Quaternity Emphasis

Students within the Quaternity program at Montana State explore their education through the lens of a traditional liberal arts education, with a flexible student-centered course plan that views the world through four concepts of knowledge: thinking, feeling, intuition and sensation. As part of the Liberal Studies department, Quaternity students take a series of integrative seminars designed to provide a sense of academic community and improve their critical thinking and communication skills, all while obtaining a better understanding of the factual knowledge and theoretical foundations of the subjects they’re studying.

In addition to the traditional four-year campus experience, the Quaternity degree within Liberal Studies is also available through the Online Degree Completion Program. The Online Degree Completion Program is specifically designed for students who have completed an associate's degree and wish to earn their bachelor's degree online for any number of reasons.

The Liberal Studies major at Montana State offers two additional Options Within the Major: Environmental Studies and Global & Multicultural Studies.
