The master’s degree specialty and graduate certificate in Art, Literature and Culture can be earned entirely online or evenings on campus.

The Art, Literature, and Culture specialty offers students the opportunity to experience and study rich and varied literary, musical, and visual and performance artistic expressions across cultures and time. Courses in the program are interdisciplinary in nature and are presented within a context of a political and social environment. Students in the Arts and Literature program work to understand the relationship between the arts and the values of the culture from which they emerge. They enhance their ability to be critical, active participants in experiences related to the arts and to “connect” with artistic material and the act of creative expression. Students in this specialty area are encouraged to pursue further study of world art, literature, and culture through the internal or related course options.
