Description of Interdisciplinary Studies in the Humanities (ISH) Major:
If you want the freedom to explore a broad array of humanities disciplines as well as the ability to focus deeply in an area of particular interest, this major combines the best of both worlds. You gain a multidimensional perspective through the study of history, literature, philosophy, religion, and languages, and a senior thesis allows you to develop expertise in and passion around a specific topic of your choosing.

Our interdisciplinary minor in Writing complements your existing major and signals your recognition that written (and oral) communication skills are essential to success in any career. Whether your major is in the natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, or a professional field, the writing minor enhances your career readiness and helps ensure you will succeed.
