From Professor Harvey, Director of the Humanities Program:
Dear FIU students and prospective students: Studying
the Humanities--from the classics of the ancient world to contemporary
philosophy, literature, and art--will enrich your understanding of the
world and your role in it. To know great thinkers, writers, and artists
through the ages is to be given a critical lens to see what you would
not otherwise see and to develop a lifelong and life-enhancing habit of
active curiosity.
The Humanities faculty are devoted to developing students who are
intellectually daring, enriched by the wisdom of the past, and committed
to a better global future.
If you have a question about how FIU’s Humanities Program can further
your life and career objectives--either as a Humanities Major or
Minor--email Professor Harvey (harveyb@fiu.edu) or speak to any of the
Humanities professors at the Biscayne Bay campus.
