Required Special Program (16 credits)
Students must complete a minimum of 16 credits of 300- and 400-level course work in a definable Humanities field, with courses chosen in consultation with the Dean and faculty members from the students’ fields of interest. The program must be approved by the Dean.
Required Senior Project (3 credits)
No later than mid-term of the semester before undertaking their senior projects, students are responsible for setting up a committee of two or more faculty members with competence in the chosen field and for choosing one of them as chair. The committee must be approved by the Dean and the Provost.
No later than the end of the semester preceding their senior projects, students must prepare – in consultation with their committee – a written plan for their senior project, the final component of the humanities major. This plan must be approved by the Dean, and the Provost.
Ordinarily, students undertake an independent cross-disciplinary senior project for 3 credit hours under the instructor most directly concerned. If students are prepared properly in a particular field, they may substitute a regular Senior Seminar in an appropriate department with written approval from the Dean, Provost, and course instructor.
