Students may pursue the baccalaureate degree with a Humanities major, allowing them to cross
traditional disciplinary boundaries in order to study particular themes, movements or historical
periods in a carefully integrated curriculum. For example, a student may explore the evolution of
Western culture through a coherent study of the art, philosophy and history of the Western world.
The humanities major allows for a highly individualized course of study. In consultation with an advisor,
students design a program that corresponds to their academic and professional needs, while fulfilling
minimum distribution requirements.
