The School of Humanities at ULM includes the programs of Communication, English, History, and World Languages.
The humanities or studia humanitatis are connected through their study of the human
environment, its diverse heritage, traditions, and history.
They explore how we communicate with each other and how our ideas and thoughts on
the human experience are expressed and interpreted.
They help us think about and respond to the world and give us tools to examine and
make sense of our lives. Focusing on the big questions, both contemporary and perennial,
these disciplines engage students in civic life, locally and globally, while equipping
them to face the challenges of the future.
Mission of the School of Humanities
The School of Humanities prepares students with skills in communicating, critical
thinking, and problem solving; enables students to investigate themes in the history,
language and literature of various cultures, as well as the nature of culture itself;
fosters a supportive environment in which faculty and student scholars can flourish;
and provides graduates with tools to excel as locally, regionally, and globally informed
citizens and professionals.
