The School of Humanities and Arts
Led by a world-class faculty, Rice University's School of Humanities and Arts offers programs in disciplines traditionally associated with humanities - such as art, classical studies, literature, history, philosophy, languages, and religion - while also pushing beyond disciplinary boundaries to explore in all its ramifications what it means to be human.
