The College of Arts and Humanities, through the cooperation of the College of Communication, offers a Bachelor of Arts degree with a humanities major.

This major is designed for students who desire a broad-based curriculum in the liberal arts. With roots in classical Greek and Roman languages and literature, humanities focuses on branches of knowledge concerned with human culture, such as philosophy, literature and the fine arts, as distinguished from the sciences.

The humanities major provides preparation leading to careers in professions where human values are stressed, such as library science and law. The program provides a menu of courses from diverse disciplines while promoting more focused study in areas of individual interest.

For more information about this major, students should consult the dean of the College of Arts and Humanities.
