The Division of Arts & Humanities presents students with academic programs grounded in a tradition of the liberal arts and sciences. Such programs provide students and faculty members with opportunities to broaden their understanding of the human experience, to enrich their own human potential and that of other people, and to enhance those skills in thought processes and communication which are essential for effective living.
Through the division, students may pursue majors in art, art education, art history, communication and new media studies, fine arts, English, general studies, graphic design, history, interior architecture and design plus a marketing minor, music, religious education, religious pastoral ministry, and religious studies; they may earn minors in American studies, art history, Catholic studies, communication and new media studies, English, history, iDesign, illustration, international art & design, music, philosophy, photography, religious studies, Spanish, women’s studies, written communication, and an interdisciplinary minor in ethics. The division also offers a certificate in iDesign.
In addition to major, minor, and certificate programs, faculty members in humanities offer all students a set of department courses that satisfy the requirements in the liberal arts and sciences core. Course sequences in Spanish also are available which students may apply to elective hours in the Liberal Arts and Sciences Core Curriculum.
