Our Bachelor of Arts degree in Comparative Cultural Studies can help you begin to discover the answers to the complexities of life, human nature, and the diversity of cultures. The Emphases: Digging deeper into your passion You will take nine hours (typically three classes) of core courses and choose one—or even two—of four emphases: Art History, Asian Studies, Humanities, or Comparative Study of Religions. Art History Through formal analysis, iconology, and historic themes, you’ll uncover the "what" behind a work of art, the cultural context from which it comes, and the "why" that’s behind the work. Asian Studies Asian Studies/Global Studies Engineering Program The interdisciplinary ASN emphasis allows you to learn about how traditional cultures across the Asian continent and North Africa inform present-day decision-making. You can choose from over 75 courses on history, art, political science, geography, music, religion and languages (Arabic, Chinese and Japanese). Humanities By studying the natural world, technology, and art, you’ll explore the bigger picture of “learning to live together.” Your studies will compare and contrast the relationships between fine and popular arts, nature and the city, politics and the arts, music and commerce, and identity and history. Comparative Study of Religions Have you ever wondered how the world's great cultures imagined the universe, and how they lived in it? Dive deeper into some of the enduring questions humans have asked for ages while learning about your world: the ideas, values, and spirituality of Native American, Asian, European, and other traditions. Careers: This degree provides valuable preparation for graduate work or professional study in the arts, humanities, and social sciences. Career opportunities that might be pursued: Education Museum, gallery, cultural institution work Writing/editing (grant-writing, journalism, traditional and electronic publishing) Program administration (non-profits, corporate, governmental and NGO) Planning and policy research With further education, one of these paths is possible: Art Curator Preservation and conservation Curator
