As an academic unit of Xavier University, the College of Arts and Sciences commits to the holistic development of the students in order to form them into men and women of competence, conscience, and commitment, while actively responsive to the needs of the larger community of the country and the Asia-Pacific.
The College, through the general education courses, provides the students with the liberal and humanistic education to enable them to become broad-minded, to think clearly, critically and logically, as needed for life-long learning and decision-making in daily life. The College of Arts and Sciences implements the Jesuit mission courses in Philosophy and Religious Studies to develop the specifically Christian and Ignatian character of the students.
The College offers degree programs in AB History/International Studies/Political Science, AB English, AB Filipino, AB Philosophy, AB Economics, AB Sociology, BS Psychology, BS Mathematics, BS Chemistry, BS Biology and Marine Biology. Through its apostolates of teaching, research, advocacy and community extension services, the College commits to continuously work with and for the community in the pursuit of truth and of social concerns, the improvement of linkages and relationships of people in Northern Mindanao, and the preservation of culture and environment in Mindanao in particular and the Philippines in general.
In sum, the College of Arts and Sciences, as an integral part of the Filipino, Catholic and Jesuit academic community of Xavier University, strives to uphold academic excellence and to pursue justice by forming men and women of conscience, competence, commitment, and compassion in the promotion of peace and development for the service of God and the Filipino people.
DELL is both a service unit and an academic unit. As a service unit, it provides classes on core subjects in English to all colleges in the tertiary level. As an Academic Unit, it offers courses in the Undergraduate and Graduate levels. For the undergradute, it has two tracks leading to the Bachelor of Arts Degree, categorized into the Languages and Literature majors. In the graduate level, it currently offers four tracks: Master of Arts in Literature (with thesis), Master in Literature (Capstone project), Master of Arts in English Language (with thesis), and Master in English Language (Capstone Project).
The Department of Psychology aims to provide quality education to its students, thus producing critical thinkers and service-oriented graduates whose critical role in the society is to understand human behavior and other psychological phenomena.
The MA Psychology program intends to produce compassionate, conscientious and competent psychologists who can help individuals and groups in different settings or fields. Specifically, the program intends to equip students the skills that are necessary for them to be able to practice psychological assessment and diagnosis, individual and group counseling and psychological research, particularly in the community.
The graduate program, furthermore, prepares students so that they may have experience that may help them become recognized by well-regarded and purposeful psychological associations as certified practitioners in their field of specialization.
Mentoring
MA PSYC also has a mentoring program wherein faculty members help students keep track of their academic progress & at the same time see the value of being men & women for others. Likewise, the mentoring program encourages students to engage in research that emphasizes the community & the themes of the university’s research & social outreach endeavour namely: Environment, Food Security, Good Governance, Health & Sanitation, & Peace.
