Why humanities? Our increasingly technical and scientific world is transforming rapidly, requiring people who can adapt quickly, possess strong communication skills, think creatively and critically; people who are multilingual, with a broad cultural base, and embrace lifelong learning. Studying humanities at a technological university, you will be well-positioned to address these challenges and create the future.
Communication, Culture, and Media—BA

English—BA
Study Anglophone literature and creative writing in its many forms: textual, visual, cinematic, dramatic and theatrical, oral, digital, and multimedia. Our English bachelors degree students read, interpret, communicate, and think critically with their knowledge of literary history, criticism, and theory.
Scientific and Technical Communication—BA, BS
Study communication in its various forms: oral, written, print, video, web, and digital.
