Humanities Degree Requirements

Humanities major (75 credits)

Courses in two or more of the following areas: communication studies, French, German, humanities, Latin, linguistics, literature/English, modern languages, philosophy, religious studies, Spanish, or writing. The emphasis in the major is determined with the help of an advisor. Possible emphases include communications, modern languages, and philosophy/religion/mythology

at least five (5) courses total in each of two areas:
at least four (4) of the five courses must be upper-division courses, for a minimum of 12 credits upper-division per block/area;
other Humanities areas may be included in the plan, in addition to the two blocks of courses;
first-year language courses will not count in the major.

Required: 36 upper-division credits, including HUM 450 Senior Portfolio (1)

Advising:

Choose your advisor according to the areas your degree will focus on; if your plan includes primarily Speech Communication and Spanish, for example, ask a faculty member in one of those areas to advise you. If you want help identifying an appropriate faculty member, see the division administrative program assistant in HSS 313.
