WHY LIBERAL ARTS?

YOU GET IT think you

It's there in your imagination: a picture of what your liberal arts education will be like. How it will broadly prepare you for a bit of everything that comes after college, instead of specifically preparing you for just one thing. And sure, you can see how a well-rounded education will add depth and meaning to your life. It just makes sense. And you know that future employers are going to want job candidates who can think critically, creatively, and globally. Who are informed communicators that are ready to take on careers that canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be taught, because they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even exist yet. Yes, you understand the power of a liberal arts education. You get it.

BUT THEN IT'LL HAPPEN 93%

OF EMPLOYERS SAY THAT CRITICAL THINKING, COMPLEX PROBLEMSOLVING, AND CLEAR COMMUNICATION SKILLS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE UNDERGRADUATE MAJOR YOU CHOOSE.

one day

You'll really get it. The aha! moment will come in the form of a powerful epiphany, maybe a moment or two after a pizza-fueled debate about philosophy. Or when you find out that you got the job. Not because of what you said, but how you said it—confidently. Or perhaps it will come to you in the shower, or right before you go to sleep one night—as you’re arguing with yourself about which of the 12 ways you found to solve a problem is the best. It’ll dawn on you. A feeling, knowing that you've got this. Because the layers and layers of knowledge you’ve acquired at the University of Oregon are future-proofing you—preparing you for life, and a lifetime of careers.

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON

WE DRIVE

RESEARCH DRIVES US We’re a member of the Association of American Universities (AAU). Meaning we’re one of the top 62 research universities in the nation. Along with Michigan, Berkeley, Yale—you get the idea. We’re one of two AAU members in the Pacific Northwest, and the only one in Oregon. Surprised? Research is one of the things that makes us us. We’re passionately committed to it, both pure and applied, on every level. We’re more than a little obsessed with finding answers— to big questions, little questions, and new

answers to questions that people think are already resolved. It’s in our nature to search. And collaborate with each other— across campus and across disciplines with local and worldwide partners. It’s in our nature to be curious and find better ways. For the health and welfare of those in Oregon, the nation, and the world.

WHEN YOU’RE MIGHTY PASSIONATE ABOUT MANY THINGS. Jordyn Roach CINEMA STUDIES | PHYSICS

Jordyn decided to double-major. In cinema studies and physics. Interested in the science behind optics and the art of film, she didn’t settle for one or the other— she chose both. And it’s working out brilliantly for her. She’s already interned on the set of the TV show Portlandia and is winning awards and scholarships for her short films. That’s why we encourage you to go big and mix things up.

SOCIAL SCIENCES THE HUMANITIES NATURAL SCIENCES

Why do humans go to war? What conditions could cause global economic systems to crash (again)? How can we end racial discrimination, poverty, sexism? First, learn how to observe, analyze, and take the long view. An anthropological, geographical, sociological, or historical view. Seek out a deeper understanding of people and politics, cultures, and environments. Conduct field research and apply technology to more astutely explain human behavior. Work together to find solutions for what ails society. Where do you want to start?

SOCIA L SCIENCES

This is the heart of the university. The academic epicenter for just about every student who comes to the UO. Where you can learn about everything under the sun, and beyond. About the sun itself. Find different vantage points to gain new insights on the world. More than just one world, though. The inner world of ideas, of imagination. The social world of human behavior and systems. The outer world of natural and physical phenomena—from nanoparticles to exoplanets. The College of Arts and Sciences is where some of the finest faculty on earth are doing groundbreaking research. They will challenge you to think big. To dive deep. Turn your assumptions upside down. Inside out. Smash them to bits. Build new ones. Repeat.

COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES (CAS) SOCIAL SCIENCES THE HUMANITIES NATURAL SCIENCES

Languages, philosophies, religions. Theater, literature, folklore. Why study the humanities? Because you’re human. They help us make sense of the world. They provide perspective. Give our lives context and meaning. They seek to explain what makes us tick. Our customs, traditions, complex belief systems, and values. How we express ourselves—to each other, on stage, on paper, on film. The humanities provide us with a forum to thoroughly, thoughtfully discuss what it means to be human—who we are and why we’re here.

ENVIRONMENTAL HUMANITIES Your assignment: create an Instagram gallery of images from the perspective of an animal. You know, like a toad. Or a squirrel. Your next assignment: keep a detailed diary of your interactions with plastics over the course of a single day—food packaging, your phone, your sunglasses, your flip-flops. And then write a short story about the future of our species. These creative exercises—all taken from the syllabus for Introduction to Environmental Studies: Humanities— will get you to look at the environment in a different way. An imaginative way. To move your thinking outside the box. Which might be just what we need to address the world's biggest environmental challenges.

COMPUTER AND INFORMATION SCIENCE

This is where you’ll learn to ask the right questions to find some answers—and come up with even more questions—about life, the earth, the universe. This is where you’ll learn to research. To experiment. To theorize about quantum mechanics, model molecules, and decode DNA. To create theories about the human mind, cures for the human body, and ways to heal the environment. This is where we work together to create new knowledge daily. So we can share it with the world.

And the timing was perfect for a couple of seniors who were eager to move beyond everyday course work, which, as Ryan put it, can feel a little like “jumping through the hoops that everyone has jumped through before you.

COLLISION COURSE The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) does just what its name implies. It makes atoms smash into each other at incredibly high speeds. Why? To release giant amounts of energy, and to discover the building blocks of matter. It’s also a headlinemaking machine—like in 2013, when researchers used the LHC to discover the Higgs boson particle. Trust us, for something so small, it’s a huge deal. How does such a big machine help find something so little? Stephanie Majewski knows. With her guidance, Stephanie’s students were tasked with developing algorithms—mathematical shortcuts— to sort through the trillions of data points and find the good stuff, so that physicists like Stephanie can get right to work, answering deep questions

One of the very first four-year honors colleges in the US. This is where award-winning faculty members work closely with a tight-knit group of exceptional students from every department and school. Here, no question or problem is off-limits, even ones that are. The goal: foster original research and an intense, creative exchange of ideas. So every student—every one—in the Clark Honors College is responsible for doing original research. All students form faculty committees to oversee their projects. And every student produces a final thesis or creative project that—who knows?—may just change the world.

ANOTHER REASON TO BE HERE. You don’t have to choose between a small liberal arts college and a large university to get both personalized attention and large university resources. In the Clark Honors College, you’ll find classes with as few as eight students, but you can still choose from 315-plus degree programs. Faculty members will give you focused attention and unparalleled access to research opportunities. Small. Big. You can have both.

COLLEGE OF EDUCATION

We teach teachers to teach better. But we also train administrators and counselors. School psychologists and family therapists. Human service providers and clinicians. And you know what? We’re really good at it. US News and World Report consistently ranks us among the top schools of education nationwide. We’ve been in their top three for special education for 17 years running. And when it comes to research, our impact on educational and social systems is felt far and wide. Together, our faculty and students are finding new ways to help people, especially kids, reach their full potential.

If you really want to find out what makes the world go around, sometimes you just have to get out there. Get your hands dirty. Go places. We’re constantly finding new ways to enhance your education by daring you to dive into the deep end of learning. Want to learn about media in emerging markets? Let’s go to an emerging market. How

We’re

taking our Sustainable Cities Initiative to Beijing. We’ll find out. This is why the School of Journalism and Communication sends advertising and journalism students to Alaska to study climate change. Unexpected? Perhaps. Because advertising and journalism students aren’t biologists and climatologists, right? But they are creative individuals who are naturally good at reporting on and solving complex problems. So guess what happened next? They came back with a powerful understanding of what a changing climate means for wildlife habitats and the environment. They came back with answers, new questions, amazing pictures, and lots of stories. It all starts right here. Every year, we enable thousands of Ducks to get out there. Follow their educations wherever they lead—down the street, across Oregon, across the country, around the world—and take the plunge into immersive experiences. We call it catalytic learning. You can call it learning about life by living it.

MYSTERIOUS. MONUMENTAL. MOAI. You’ve probably seen pictures of the moai statues of Rapa Nui (or Easter Island). The multi-ton carved stones have piqued a lot of people's interest over the years, including UO senior Sean Hixon’s. To the point that he wanted to see them for himself, and do something that few who’ve gone before have succeeded in doing— unravel some of the mystery surrounding the moai. Fast forward. Sean went to the island, took 15,000 photos (yes, 15,000) and used them to motion map the stones from many angles. A clever model that proved that stone ramps, towers, and pulley systems were likely used to place huge rock “hats” on top of the statues. Pretty amazing, right? But what did you expect? He’s a Duck.

Ducks don’t just play a few sports; they play practically every sport playable—at every skill level. Here, anyone can get a team up and running and have a good time. Dodgeball to bocce ball. Swimming to soccer. And ultimate. Frisbee, that is. It all happens here. uorec.uoregon.edu

OUR FACILITIES FACILITATE GREATNESS No matter what or where you're playing at the UO, one thing will be abundantly clear—we don’t do mediocre. Because when you compete at the highest levels of intercollegiate athletics, it’s not enough to just keep up with the competition—you have to best the best. Especially when it comes to providing top-notch training facilities. For the athletes climbing rock walls in the Student Rec Center, playing flag football on Jane Sanders Field, spiking on Mac Court, or crushing it on the softball diamond, too.

WIN THE DAY With 20 Division I sports to cheer for and 29 national championships under our belt, it’s true we have a lot to be proud of. But it’s not just about chalking up victories on national stages. It's about being passionate about the sport you’re playing. On the field, or court, in the water, everywhere. Whether we’re playing football or softball. It’s about focusing on the moment. The crowd. The play. The forward motion. The heroes, sung and unsung. It’s about winning the day. Every day. goducks.com

MAKE THE GREAT OUTDOORS GREATER This place gets in your head. It makes you want to jog forever, kayak through whitewater, and live life to the fullest. Hike up a mountain and camp in the clouds. Float down the Willamette, fish for a great story, pedal to the horizon, and just . . . explore. You’ll start early and go ’til whenever. Realize you’re very happy here. Mostly because here is here, but also because we’ll help you stay active. You’ll be able to rent or borrow just about anything you can imagine. Need shoes, tents, or avalanche safety gear? You got it. Paddles and something to paddle, a bike, or a snowboard? Get what you need. Then get out there and go for it. outdoorprogram.uoregon.edu 36

WE EMBRACE OUR DIFFERENCES We’ve decided it’s not enough to just be different together. We want cultural collisions that lead to happy accidents. Crosspollination that leads to new perspectives about opinions and about points of view. We want thousands of brilliant students from Oregon, the US, around the world, learning from each other. Speaking their minds, working, and sharing with each other. Being inclusive and rigorously equitable. Discovery demands it. Excellence demands it. So we demand it. At every level. That’s how we do things here. Because we’re Ducks. We know the differences between us make us stronger and smarter together than we would be apart.
