Feinstein School of Humanities, Arts and Education

SHAE offers a wide range of degree options for both undergraduate and graduate students. Our programs combine theory with practice, leading to well-rounded students with the skill set to succeed in the workforce or future studies.

Encompassing the humanities, digital design, education, and history, our departments carry on the great tradition of liberal arts colleges. Each department emphasizes project-based learning experiences and the development of critical skills in order to prepare students for lifelong success.

Our experienced and credentialed scholars and practitioners develop personal, meaningful relationships with students. Both inside and outside the classroom they are directly involved with all aspects of educating our students. 

At the center of SHAE is the commitment to student belonging and academic success. We provide the spaces and programs that highlight students’ imaginations, passion, and skill development. Meeting students where they are and empowering them to go in their chosen direction is an act of social justice truly in need in this era.

This is the #SHAEAdvantage.

In SHAE, we use our strengths as readers, writers, and thinkers, as artists and educators, to redress past wrongs and envision possible futures. Our students, faculty, and staff welcome and affirm all who learn in our classrooms and engaged spaces. We acknowledge that historically our disciplines have engaged in cultural erasure, educational violence, and the preservation of privilege.  In SHAE, we are committed to building a culture of anti-racism and intersectional inclusivity in which we commit ourselves to resilience and growth.
