The Master of Arts in Humanities is a cooperative program offered by the Department
of Fine Arts, Art History and Humanities and the Department of Comparative Literature
and Languages, which also utilizes the faculty expertise and course offerings
of the departments of English, including American Literature and Creative Writing;
History; Music; Philosophy; Sociology and Anthropology; as well as other disciplines
of interest to the student. The program offers a unique opportunity to students
interested in interdisciplinary studies. It is particularly rich in courses—notably
in HUM 231-234 Interdisciplinary Studies series—that explore the relationship
between the arts and literature, as well as the philosophical and historical movements
and theories that shaped them. A research resource available to students who want
to embark on cutting-edge scholarship in this area is the internationally recognized
Weingrow Collection of Avant-Garde Art and Literature (artists’ books, foundation
documents, first editions, periodicals, manuscripts, catalogues, objects, prints
documenting the major art movements of the twentieth century). Students, as well
as teachers, requiring an advanced degree in the liberal arts within a comparative
context in the Humanities would be good candidates for this program.
