Humanities
About the Program
Humanities is the study of literature, art, history and philosophy to search for life's meaning. Courses investigate how artists and thinkers have grappled with the big questions such as what it means to be human, what it means to be happy, and how to live a good life.
The calling of the humanities is to make us truly human in the best sense of the word.
In this program, you'll learn to think and write critically, as well as solve complex problems.
90% of employers consider critical thinking skills more important than a job applicant’s undergraduate major.
1/3 of Fortune 500 CEOs have humanities degrees
