Humanities is an interdisciplinary concentration in the Liberal Studies major. This sequence is especially appropriate for nontraditional students who have full-time work experience and between 30 and 75 transfer credits. The Humanities interdisciplinary approach gives returning adult students flexibility in completing their undergraduate education as well as increased career mobility and/or personal enrichment. The concentration applies resources, theories, and methodologies from six humanities disciplines and prepares students to address issues of values, ethics, and cultural enrichment. The concentration emphasizes both personal growth and practical career needs. Students choosing this concentration are well prepared for Marymount's Master of Arts in Humanities graduate degree program or other graduate programs in humanities disciplines.
