College of Arts and Sciences, also known as liberal arts college, is one of the important types of American universities. The College of Arts and Sciences generally refers to a small but sophisticated university, which pursues liberal arts education and focuses on undergraduate education. The college of arts and sciences pays attention to comprehensive education, emphasizing the exploration of students' thinking potential and realizing real all-round development. Its curriculum is based on basic disciplines, covering arts, humanities, natural sciences, social sciences and other categories.
This is different from comprehensive universities, various professional schools and technical universities oriented to vocational training or scientific research. A considerable number of students in the United States have obtained bachelor's degrees from these liberal arts colleges. In the eyes of most Americans, liberal arts colleges often represent classic, small-scale and high-quality undergraduate education.

Yale National University of Singapore College, Tokyo University College of Arts and Sciences, Lingnan University in Hong Kong, and Yonsei University International College (UIC) in Korea are all outstanding among Asian arts and sciences colleges.
