As the cornerstone of a liberal arts education, the humanities ask students to discover the past, reflect on the present and imagine possibilities for our future. Those who wish to explore the world and the insights of great minds may choose from courses in English, philosophy, religious studies, law, music history and foreign languages. The Maryville experience of the humanities emphasizes an integrated understanding of culture and its intellectual, aesthetic and moral components.
Why invest time and money in a humanities degree? The humanities department is dedicated to developing innovative and critical thinkers, excellent communicators and ethical members of society. Employers hire humanities graduates knowing they will be versatile, inquisitive, well-rounded employees. For those interested in graduate-level education, studies in the humanities provide excellent preparation for a wide range of fields such as law, English and liberal studies.
