Brown University Humanities Programs

Brown University's program in Integrative Humanities Studies explores the humanities and contemporary human experience through the lens of race, social justice, democracy and decolonial curatorial and knowledge practices. The program is designed to collapse the dichotomy between the languages of practice and scholarship through the creation of an integrated interdisciplinary curriculum incorporating both theory and practice, linking current academic debates to conversations taking place in museums and other cultural institutions. 

An expansive set of courses led by Brown faculty prepares students with the knowledge and tools for successful careers in institutions such as museums, cultural heritage sectors and nonprofits. Students will be guided by a track-based curriculum that provides structure and direction. Tracks include:

• Museums/Public History
• Art/Curation
• Nonprofit Management
• Digital Humanities
