Oral and written communication, teamwork skills with diverse groups, ethical judgment and decision-making are all humanities strengths. Unleash the power and the joy of humanities study.
Connect your passion to your career.
Who knows where life will take you? Embrace the adventure. From management, technology, advocacy and entrepreneurship to education, health care and entertainment, humanities-based skills will serve you well no matter what your future as a leader and a global citizen holds. Creative thinking, problem solving, effective writing and research: these are the strengths every employer seeks. And a humanities degree is an ideal entryway to law school or graduate study.
Live a good life.
More than three out of four humanities majors state that they are living “the best possible life,” and the vast majority say that they are satisfied with their careers. No other fields of study offer so many opportunities. And none prepare you so well to lead a life of self-reflection and ethical strength. Through firm foundations in writing, research, critical thinking, cultural study and debate, the humanities offer a toolkit for the creation of a fulfilling life and a more just world.
