Humanities
LSA's Humanities division is home to 18 units that engage scholars in the study and research of language, history, arts, and culture. Graduate students critically analyze connections between these diverse topics and their impact on the human experience, producing thought-provoking research that is used for public good.
Research in the humanities is centered on understanding the human experience through art, literature, language, and cultures across the world. Humanities scholars in LSA are studying everything from ancient cuneiform script to the evolving challenges of the modern workplace.
