Purpose

Thomas Harriot College of Arts and Sciences is the largest college at ECU, offering more than 25 undergraduate majors, even more minors, and general education courses for all students in the humanities, the social sciences, the natural sciences and mathematics. The mission of Harriot College is to provide high-quality undergraduate and graduate education in the liberal arts and sciences. We do so through thought-provoking classes taught by experts in their fields, as well as engaging high-impact practices outside of the classroom through research, leadership, outreach, and study abroad experiences. Our graduates are equipped to address complex challenges, contribute meaningfully to their communities, and lead fulfilling lives.

Harriot College’s vision is to be an engine of access, knowledge, and opportunity for all learners through transformative education, innovative research and creative activities, and meaningful community engagement.

Harriot College is multidisciplinary by nature, and interdisciplinary by design.
