Villa's 'Learn and Apply' Approach to Academics
Set the foundation. As a student here, not only will you learn about the contextual history and basic fundamentals of your chosen field, but you’ll also explore the shifting trends, advanced techniques and latest technologies. Then go one step further. We put you to work. Through internships, service learning, and volunteer activities related to your program, and many opportunities to showcase your work, you get to take what you learn in the classroom and apply it in a practical setting.
An academic minor can have some pretty major benefits.
