Arts & Humanities - Global

Arts and Humanities Global courses will promote the development of critical thinking and inquiry through the study of the arts and humanities in a global context. Students will analyze the social and/or cultural impact of inequitable systems in relation to the global movement of peoples, ideas, objects, artistic forms, and/or technologies. Students will reflect on the relationship between the course content and their lived experience.

Creative expression is a fundamental human activity that results in the production of objects, environments, and experiences that engage the senses, emotion, and/or intellect. The humanities grapple with a range of human experiences through time and across cultures. The arts and humanities include knowledge of history, philosophical traditions, major religions, diverse cultural legacies, performing arts, literature, film, the visual arts, and music.

  • The courses for each Arts & Humanities category must be from two different designators (subject codes) per Academic Regulation 25.
