The Liberal Arts Diploma Program provides students with a breadth of intellectual and academic experience, while recognizing the importance of concentrated study in a specific field or discipline. This program requires a total of 60 university-transferable credits, at least 15 of which must be completed at Douglas College, and at least 33 credits must be from Arts and Humanities subjects.

The Liberal Arts Diploma addresses the needs of students pursuing educational or career goals in the arts, humanities or social sciences. The diploma may serve as an educational goal or as an intermediate qualification for those completing further degrees at Douglas College or elsewhere.
