- Arts and Humanities
- Business Programs

Each division is led by an academically qualified dean (pg. 68). The dean is assisted by either division chairs (pg. 390), department chairs (pg. 387), and/or program coordinators (pg. 291) that are also academically qualified in their respective fields. These leaders are responsible for curricula development, delivery, review, program assessment and monitoring daily operations. They also provide input for strategic planning, make budget recommendations for faculty positions, equipment, and facility renovations, as well as coordinate program advisory committees (pg. 7).
