scientific training that builds upon a specific preparation in basic techniques and knowledge acquired in undergraduate school." Rather, legal education requires that students come having developed three fundamental capacities: "a thorough preparation in the use of language"; "a comprehensive, exploratory undergraduate experience"; and the completion of a degree program in which the student will learn "to think clearly, form sound study habits, and have the opportunity to master the methodology and knowledge of a particular field under the guidance of experienced instructors." These are precisely the skills developed by a liberal studies major or minor.
Many Whitney Young School of Honors and Liberal Studies students plan careers in a pre-professional program. Each of these students benefits from an advisor in the Honors School and in the pre-professional program. Many pre-medical students remain in the college to complete a major in liberal studies. Students majoring in Business, Biology, and Education can complete a minor in Liberal studies in four years. Liberal Studies curricula for pre-law students are listed in the following pages. Engineering students, who finish their final two years at another university, are often able to complete both an Associate of Arts degree in Liberal Studies and a Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Mathematics from Kentucky State University, and the engineering degree from the cooperating university.
