M.A., Humanities, Interdisciplinary

Format: Campus

Program Description:

The Interdisciplinary Humanities Master of Arts program is administered by the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies, following the guidance of a program advisory committee. The program is devoted to the exploration of humanities interests. Faculty supporting the program represent diverse scholarly specialties within the humanities, arts, and social sciences. They are drawn primarily from the college but may also include appropriate individuals from the broader University community. Students in the Interdisciplinary Humanities program develop an individual curriculum following guidelines established by the program advisory committee. Programs of study typically focus upon a unifying theme but draw from several academic areas. Some students pursue intensive or specialized work in complementary areas from at least two disciplines. Studies often bridge from the humanities to other scholarly or creative areas. The program experience culminates with an integrative thesis prepared under the direction of an assigned faculty committee.
