The College of Liberal Arts of Mercer University offers unique learning experiences that prepares students to make a difference in the world as only they can. Faculty members are committed to providing a student-centered experience that integrates the academic scholarship and cutting-edge research found at a major university with the personalized mentoring and engaged learning environment of a traditional liberal arts college. This dynamic combination draws young scholars who show high promise and ability from across the nation and around the world to study at Mercer.
 
Excellence in Teaching is a Priority
The College of Liberal Arts sets a priority on engaging students in active learning by bringing significant research, excellence in scholarship and diverse creative expression into the classroom. This commitment is accomplished by having all classes - even freshman courses - taught by dedicated, full-time faculty. Students do not have teaching assistants instructing their classes at Mercer.
A Commitment to Service
 
More than half of Mercer's undergraduate students participate in community service, with many involved in service-learning courses several times during their Mercer studies. The tradition of service-learning in the College goes back more than 40 years. 
 
The University received national recognition from Campus Compact (an organization of college presidents pledged to community service) and The Princeton Review for its commitment to service-learning. It was one of only 81 educational institutions across the nation to receive the designation of "College with a Conscience."
