The Humanities Major offers students an integrated interdisciplinary program of study within a community of diverse-minded and energetic students and faculty.
Over the course of their studies, Humanities majors acquire a thorough knowledge of arts and culture while developing rigorous critical thinking, communication, and analytical skills that will prepare them for a wide variety of careers. The innovative adaptability and independence of thought our students develop make them valuable employees, conscientious citizens, and life-long arts enthusiasts.
The flexibility of the CU Humanities Program is incredibly valuable to me because I think it’s something I would struggle to find elsewhere. The way the Humanities is structured gives you a very strong foundation of analytical skills, but allows you to follow your passion and really create your own curriculum. The faculty and students are also really close knit and it makes for a really supportive community. I feel like all of my Humanities professors know me personally and want to make sure their classes help me reach my goals as well as theirs."
