A new concentration called the Interdisciplinary Study of the Humanities and Sciences (ISHS) will launch this spring. Students from any academic discipline are welcome participate in this 18-hour concentration that explores topics in the humanities and sciences. It engages with historical, philosophical, ethical, cultural, and representational aspects of scientific and mathematical investigation. It also examines social formations, cultural objects, texts, and discourses from empirical and experimental perspectives. Students who successfully complete the ISHS concentration will be able to articulate a complex, nuanced, reflective, and informed understanding of the way the sciences and humanities interrelate.
