"The CORE program has given me a wider and firmer base of knowledge enabling me to actually talk with students and professors in different fields."

— Jason Hentschel

Why do we study math, history, languages, the natural sciences and the fine arts? At Ouachita, we recognize that in the world God created all of these areas are interconnected. While we separate them to create major fields of study, we also emphasize through Ouachita's CORE program that we have something to learn from each one and from connections among them. This seamless approach to education encourages the development of critical thinking skills and enhances our natural curiosity about the world in which we live. While your major will prepare you for the rigors of a particular field of study, the CORE will give you added skills and knowledge which will advance your career and enrich your life.
