The American studies program gives students the opportunity to study the entire American experience rather than simply looking at the United States through the lens of American history. The program results in a Bachelor of Arts in American Studies.
By taking courses in history, political science, English, journalism, philosophy, music and religion, students create a major that exposes them to American society and culture while at the same time reflecting their personal interests and goals.
A challenging curriculum is paired with experiential learning opportunities, from internships and study abroad experiences to undergraduate research opportunities, all of which prepare students for challenging careers and graduate study in a range of fields.
