A degree in Humanistic Studies prepares students for a broad range of careers. Our graduates work in such fields as banking, business, education, government, journalism, law, and medicine. This comes as no surprise, since a liberal arts education imparts skills that are highly valued in the world of work: thinking for oneself, asking good questions, seeing connections among disparate ideas, reading and analyzing texts intelligently, writing and speaking clearly, correctly, and confidently.

A number of our majors have earned graduate degrees at some of the best universities in the country, including Yale, Chicago, and Notre Dame. Many students have also enjoyed rewarding experiences in service or volunteer programs after graduation.
