Master of Arts in American Studies

Master of Arts in American Studies

The Master of Arts in American Studies is an interdisciplinary study of the American experience and culture. The program approaches American culture from many directions with a desire to view America as a whole rather than from the perspective of a single discipline. The program draws upon faculty expertise in a wide range of fields and programs, including:

  • Anthropology
  • Cherokee and Indigenous Studies
  • Communication
  • Criminal Justice
  • English
  • Geography
  • History
  • Political Science
  • Sociology
  • Women's and Gender Studies

The Master of Arts in American Studies consists of two (2) core courses in the scope and methods of American Studies. Students then work with a faculty committee to develop an individualized course of study in the following concentrations: American Cultural Studies, American History or American Politics.

Graduates of the program find careers in a variety of areas such as education (high-school and community college level), government or civil service, museums, law, communications and business.
