What do arts & humanities majors study?
Rooted in the classical university tradition, arts & humanities degrees examine the role that human beings play in the development of the world. Arts & humanities majors look at the ways that art and culture have influenced history, and how those decisions affect the way we deal with other people in our everyday lives. Although arts & humanities majors choose concentrations ranging from art to language to religion, they share a common set of courses, designed to develop strong skills to succeed in just about any career. This shared examination of the world gives arts & humanities majors the remarkable ability to tie today’s decisions to those of the past, in a way that can prevent us from repeating catastrophic mistakes.
