Graduate Studies in the Humanities

 

The Department of Interdisciplinary Humanities offers two Master of Arts (MA) tracks, a doctoral track, and a Certificate in the Humanities.

The first Master's Degree is The Junior College Instructors Program which is offered in conjunction with the College of Education. This program has been designed primarily for the student whose immediate professional objective is teaching in a two-year college.

The second Master of Arts program is the The Interdisciplinary Program in the Humanities and the Arts that provides a graduate Liberal Studies degree program in the humanities and the arts.

The Doctoral Program, leading to the doctor of philosophy (Ph.D.)degree in Humanities, has been designed to offer qualified students a broad interdisciplinary platform combining offerings from the participating departments of Anthropology; Art History; Classical Languages, Literature, and Civilization; Communication; Dance; English; History; Modern Languages and Linguistics; Music; Philosophy; Religion; and the School of Theatre.

The Certificate in the the Humanities provides a student holding or working toward an M.A. or Ph.D. in one of the sub-disciplines of the Humanities (or indeed outside the discipline) the requisite number of graduate hours in the Humanities (18) to be qualified to teach Humanities at the junior college level.

For further details on each of these programs please see the Department of Interdisciplinary Humanities Graduate Studies Handbook (PDF format)
