About the Faculty of Arts



 

John BallWelcome to the website of the Faculty of Arts at UNB Fredericton!

As Acting Dean, I encourage you to explore the many exciting academic programs and research activities described on this site.

Positioned at the heart of a comprehensive, national university, the Faculty of Arts is committed to first-rate teaching and outstanding research.

With undergraduate programs in 26 academic disciplines or interdisciplinary areas taught by nearly 100 full-time faculty members, we are large enough to offer a full menu of academic options, and yet small enough to guarantee intimate classroom experiences and direct access to professors.

In addition to the BA degree, we offer combined undergraduate programs with the Faculties of Science and Computer Science and with the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design. And new this year, BA students can take a minor in Business Administration. Choosing Arts means choosing opportunity, flexibility, and a customized degree that is uniquely your own.

Eight of our eleven departments also offer graduate programs, including four at the PhD level, so UNB is a great place to study at any stage of your postsecondary career.

Whatever your level (undergraduate or graduate), your interests (humanities, social sciences or languages), or your availability (full or part time), you'll find friendly, well-informed advisors to help you pursue your passions and get the most from your time at UNB.

Welcome to the Arts Experience, and happy reading!

John C. Ball
Acting Dean of the Faculty of Arts
