English and Theatre Mission Statement

The English and Theatre Arts programs provide undergraduate education in the discipline of English and theatre, which includes studies in the language itself, in literature that expresses the accumulated resources of human thought and experience, and in the effective use of language in written and oral expression. English and theatre are presented chiefly as an area of knowledge important to the liberal arts tradition but also as preparation for post-graduate or professional study and as preparation for a career immediately following graduation.

Music Mission Statement

The Music programs at the University of Jamestown prepare students to become professional musicians, teachers of music, and life-long patrons of music. The curriculum in music is presented as an integral part of the liberal arts tradition and prepares students for professional employment or postgraduate study. The Music Department at the University of Jamestown serves the entire college community and region.

Foreign Language Mission Statement

The mission of the Foreign Language programs at University of Jamestown is to help prepare the liberal arts student as a citizen of our global community. We seek to expose students to other languages and cultures, thereby broadening their concepts of language, civilization, culture, philosophy, government, religion, geography, art, aesthetics, and literature with a firm anchoring in a Christian perspective and academic excellence. In order to determine student progress toward these ends, the department assesses student learning and departmental effectiveness on a regular basis.
