Oklahoma City University
Master of Liberal Arts Program

THE PROGRAM

Oklahoma City University’s Master of Liberal Arts (M.L.A.) degree program is designed to enable adults to acquire broader knowledge, deeper insight, and greater understanding of our cultural heritage in the humanistic, social, political, and scientific aspects of contemporary civilization. The M.L.A. seeks to lift adults above the provincialism commonly associated with our rapidly changing, increasingly specialized world and to provide them with those general skills that traditionally reflect a liberal education—the abilities to summarize, analyze, evaluate, and synthesize in written and oral discourse—all in an intellectual setting of reflection and value-conscious discourse.
