American Studies

Julie Walsh, Ph.D., Director

The American Studies Program offers a major to students who desire an interdisciplinary preparation for careers that will demand a broad yet in-depth knowledge of American society, including an understanding of its economics, socio-cultural patterns, political traditions, and historical heritage, especially as it fits into today's global society.  Students are prepared for an extensive range of careers such as law, journalism, public affairs, politics or governmental affairs from the municipal to national levels, or specific professions in museums or cultural agencies.  American Studies is a foundation for helping set political or social policy for the nation, or advancing into graduate studies in law, history, literature, or political science.
