The School of Humanities invites you to explore the many ways people have expressed, imagined, and understood the human experience across time and cultures. Here, you can immerse yourself in a wide spectrum of disciplines—literature, history, linguistics, philosophy, anthropology, sociology, and geography—each offering a unique perspective on how human beings think, create, and live together.
At a moment when societies everywhere are facing profound change, the humanities help us ask the essential questions: What does it mean to live a meaningful life? How can we learn from the past to create a more just and inclusive future? In the School of Humanities, you will join a community of curious minds committed to exploring these questions—and to carrying the spirit of discovery into the wider world.
