Humanities
Involving stellar faculty from across the College, the UCCS Humanities program leads students through the pursuit of deeply human questions through highly engaging and rewarding courses. Humanities take our attention away from our personal preferences and narrow concerns by cultivating insight into history, literature, visual art, music, multiple cultures, and philosophy through the pursuit of arts and ideas for their own sake--an experiment with life itself.
