The goal of a Humanistic Studies minor is to offer students the opportunity to reflect deeply on the themes and issues they encounter within a specialization.
Students choose a Humanistic Studies minor so that they can take more courses on subjects they love and work one-on-one with a faculty advisor on a senior-year thesis. Graduates come away from the program with the satisfaction of having completed a capstone project that speaks to the skills they have advanced and the knowledge they have gained throughout their studies in the liberal arts at MICA.
