The Humanities

The University of Louisville offers
a Doctorate of
Philosophy in the Humanities designed to provide a
broad program of study
to qualified students. This doctoral program combines

interdisciplinary humanities with offerings from
participating departments
and programs: Classical and Modern Languages, English
Language and
Literature, Fine Arts, History, Linguistics, Music
History, Philosophy,

and Women's and

The Humanities Ph.D. provides
learning, research,
and service opportunities in two interdisciplinary areas of
concentration:
- Aesthetics and Creativity

The goal of the program is to preserve,
explore, and enhance
humankind's cultural legacy through study of formal
expressions, creative
artifacts, and philosophical and religious
thought.

extensive opportunities to connect their study with
broader communities
through internships. Whether directed toward community
art organizations
or teaching and research, students are well grounded to
serve as
professionals in a variety of humanities-based
programs.
