Introduction
The School of Arts and Sciences comprises disciplines that provide
the traditional foundations of college instruction in the humanities,
the social sciences, and the natural sciences. Historically, the
School has supported the College's professionally and technically
oriented programs by providing instruction in these areas through
the efforts of nine academic departments.
Presently, the School of Arts and Sciences offers six degree programs:
The Liberal Arts and Sciences Program administers an Associate in
Arts Degree program which provides students with a broad-based liberal
arts education and prepares them for junior level study at four
year colleges.
The Mathematics Department of SUNY Farmingdale in conjunction with
SUNY Stony Brook offers a unique program in applied mathematics.
Students complete their first three years of study at Farmingdale
and earn an Associate degree. They spend the fourth year of the
program at SUNY Stony Brook which awards them the Bachelor of Science
degree.
The Bachelor of Science in Technical Communications Program supports
the needs of business and industry in the New York metropolitan
region. This four-year course of study is designed to prepare students
for careers as researchers, writers, editors, and computer graphics
specialists who assist professionals in translating technical, scientific,
and professional information into graphic, oral, and written language
for specific audiences.
The Bachelor of Science degree program in Security Systems and the
Associate of Science degree program in Criminal Justice are administered
by the Department of Criminal Justice. The program treats the technical
aspects of the discipline and is designed to educate a new breed
manager of technology who integrates crime prevention theory with
the design philosophy and hardware and software components of computer
security and sensor systems.
The School of Arts and Sciences in all its undergraduate activities
stresses teaching and learning. The School is proud of its well
designed degree programs, committed faculty, special programs and
publications, student support activities and student organizations.
