School of Humanities / Graduate School of Humanities

The School of Humanities invites you to explore the many ways people have expressed, imagined, and understood the human experience across time and cultures. Here, you can immerse yourself in a wide spectrum of disciplines—literature, history, linguistics, philosophy, anthropology, sociology, and geography—each offering a unique perspective on how human beings think, create, and live together.

At a moment when societies everywhere are facing profound change, the humanities help us ask the essential questions: What does it mean to live a meaningful life? How can we learn from the past to create a more just and inclusive future? In the School of Humanities, you will join a community of curious minds committed to exploring these questions—and to carrying the spirit of discovery into the wider world.
