Hands-On, Career-Ready
Every CAST student completes an internship. More than a résumé boost, it's real-world experience. From film shoots and concert productions to interning at cancer research centers, you’ll graduate with a portfolio, not just a diploma.
Real Experiences, Real Impact
CAST brings learning to life through hands-on internships, research, and global travel.
- Internships & Field Learning – Every major integrates practical, career-building experience. From podcasting to lab research, hands-on opportunities are guaranteed to be relevant and resume-enhancing.
- Global & Cultural Journeys – Travel study programs span from National Park trips to cross-cultural pilgrimages to places like Australia, England, or Germany—growing your cultural competence and personal insight.
Liberal arts students discover things about their Creator in a science lab, on a math test, in an orchestra chair, or with their nose in a primary source … resulting from our amazing faculty committed to unlocking students’ intellectual curiosity.
