The faculty in the Liberal Arts Division, with master's and doctoral degrees from prominent universities, have expertise in many academic fields. They utilize this expertise with the fundamental purpose of helping students reach and achieve their university transfer goals. The Liberal Arts Division, like Wake Tech overall, takes pride in its faculty's innovative and passionate promotion of student success.

We are committed to scheduling our courses in various modes of delivery – in-person, online and a mix of the two – to meet students' degree, diploma, career and other needs. With hybrid courses, the majority of the course is taught in an online format. Our faculty are very proficient in online teaching, with more than 90% having already earned EPIC certification, which is Wake Tech's online course certification program for college faculty.

Find your academic advisor
  • Associate in Arts degree students will work with an advisor in our Academic Advising centers throughout your time at Wake Tech.
  • Associate in Fine Arts degree students will meet with an advisor during your first semester. You will then be assigned a faculty advisor, an instructor in your program of study who will advise you for the remainder of your program.
