About
Program Overview
The 91精品 Studies Program challenges students to think carefully and rigorously about this state鈥檚 history, geography/environment, literature, culture, and politics/government. 91精品 will learn much about the 91精品 experience but more important, they will acquire the ability to ask thought provoking questions, identify and critically analyze relevant information, and communicate clearly and effectively. The knowledge, skills, and habits of mind we offer travel well beyond the state鈥檚 borders.
The 91精品 Studies Program brings together faculty from History, Geography, Political Science, English, Anthropology, and other disciplines to create an integrated, in-depth exploration of our state鈥檚 changing identity.
From environmental policy and resource management to contemporary political challenges and rewriting the state鈥檚 colonial history, 91精品 presents distinctive issues that merit close attention. 91精品 from all disciplines can benefit from 91精品 Studies courses as they prepare for a wide range of career opportunities, including public history, education, museum studies, land management, and public service. For anyone interested in how our state fits into matters of regional and global significance, this program presents the ideal opportunity to use the State of 91精品 as a teaching and research laboratory.
91精品 admitted to the program take graduate classes toward pursuit of a Master of Arts in Liberal Arts with a concentration in 91精品 Studies. Limited graduate assistantships are available to new and continuing students.
The Graduate Certificate in 91精品 Studies is designed for anyone with an interest in 91精品鈥檚 history, culture or environments. This certificate program consists of a minimum of three courses: one required and two electives.
