A study of the humanities at UVM focuses on human beliefs, expression, and philosophy throughout history and around the globe. Classrooms near and far provide the ultimate experience by way of exhibits, performances, field trips and more.


 

Special option: First-year students can apply to our Integrated Humanities Program (IHP). Students selected take three year-long courses exploring influential texts, great thinkers, and expansive philosophies. Close connections with IHP faculty and students, special events, and an enriching residential option are among the many benefits of the program.

A UVM Fine Arts journey centers on creative inquiry and instruction in intimate think-groups. Our energy and location are both enriching and inspiring for artist majors who get that their peers and professors are unique on purpose.

 

The natural sciences and math studies at UVM present a study of the physical world and its phenomena. Accessibility to faculty and their world-changing research is a discipline game-changer.

 

The social sciences at UVM examine human behavior and the human condition through the lens of economic, political, geographic, race and gender. Graduates better understand -- and impact -- the world around us.


 

Special option: First-year students interested in an intensive, interdisciplinary approach to studying the social sciences can apply to our Integrated Social Sciences Program (ISSP). Close connections with faculty and with other ISSP students are among the many benefits of the program. Most students live together in the ISSP suite, a uniquely stimulating residential experience.

Multiple Paths to Academic Opportunity

In some cases, we collaborate with other local colleges in the Burlington area to share resources and collectively offer a richer array of classes and programs. The College of Arts and Sciences is piloting a cross-registration agreement with St. Michael’s College and Champlain College for the 2017-18 academic year. The cross-registration agreements will provide you with important learning opportunities that are not offered by our art and art history department or our film and television studies program. In return, students from Champlain and St. Michael's can take courses not offered on their campuses. UVM students who meet the prerequisites and get approval from their advisors can enroll in selected courses in graphic design, oil painting, Medieval art history, courses in sound design, and more. These are exciting opportunities that allow you to dig deeper while still pursuing our rich curricular offerings at UVM.
