| On-line Catalog: Humanities Center Undergraduate Courses (.pdf file) The Humanities Center's activities for undergraduates address two different needs. For students interested in a general liberal arts preparation or in one of the University's preprofessional programs, the center provides a broad introduction to the documents and thought of Western culture. For students interested in pursuing their interests in graduate school, the center offers a fundamental preparation geared to the individual's specific talents that can be the basis for more specialized humanistic study at the graduate level. In either case, the center stresses skill in critical reading and writing, sophistication in the use of research tools, and opportunities for supervised independent study. The coherence of each individual?s program depends upon careful consultation with the faculty adviser. The Humanities Center does not offer a departmental major. Students who wish to concentrate on the courses that it offers should consider the area major in Humanistic Studies or a major in another humanities department. |
