Liberal Arts

With more than 30 undergraduate programs, 20 graduate programs, and a variety of minors, the McAnulty College & Graduate School of Liberal Arts is the heart of Duquesne. Our mission is to prepare "students for productive and creative lives of service in a rapidly changing world. We teach students to think, write and speak clearly and critically, so they can seek truth about God, themselves, and society, and contribute to their families, communities, businesses and professions."

The impact of your gift

As the first College at Duquesne University, McAnulty has over a century long tradition and a strong vision for its future.  With your support, we can make our vision a reality.  Past gifts have allowed us to: 

  • Develop innovative programs for our students 
  • Improve our classrooms and learning centers 
  • Provide our students with scholarship opportunities 
  • Support Dissertation Fellowships 

Please donate to the McAnulty College and Graduate School of Liberal Arts on 2.10.21

Our students greatly benefit from your support as tuition and fees do not fully cover the cost of a Duquesne degree. Your gift will support: 

  • Dissertation Fellowships 
  • McAnulty (MAP) Internships 
    • Supports internship expenses such as tuition and travel 
  • Community Engagement Opportunities

Don't forget to also spread the word!
