For Prospective Students
Why We're Different
Our majors take the majority of their course credits in 300- and 400-level classes.
Majors complete significant training in a modern European language, Arabic, Hebrew, Latin, or Greek.
The academic rigor and linguistic requirements of the program help to prepare students for global careers in many fields.
Our Medieval & Renaissance Studies students investigate the histories, languages, religions, and cultures of diverse societies to broaden their intellectual horizons and obtain critical understanding of the intricate complexities and exchanges between the past and the present.
