Coordinator: Mary T. Bush, Ph.D., Assistant to the Vice President for Academic
Affairs
The American Studies major, leading to a B.A. degree, is an
interdisciplinary approach that gives students an opportunity to concentrate on
the development of American civilization as a whole rather than from the
perspective of a separate department or discipline. Students choose from
courses focusing on the study of American civilization in the areas of the Fine Arts (Art, Music,
Theatre Arts), the Humanities (History, Literature, Philosophy, Religious
Studies) and Natural and Social Sciences
(Anthropology, Economics, Geography, Political Science, Science, Sociology)
