At the
core of the liberal arts curriculum, the
Division of Arts and Sciences provides the
majority of the University’s General Education
courses, offers a wide variety of undergraduate
majors housed in its six departments and a
challenging, highly interdisciplinary
self-designed major. At the graduate level the
Division proposes a Master of Arts in Cultural
Translation and a Master of Arts in Middle East
and Islamic Studies. Grounded in the tradition
of the liberal arts, students learn to learn,
and to act creatively and purposefully in an
international environment, while pursuing majors
and/or minors in the humanities, social
sciences, information technologies, and
mathematics. |
| |
|
The
Division maintains several partnerships with
institutions such as the Sorbonne and the Musée
du Louvre offering students further
possibilities to enrich their academic
experience. Alumni have continued their studies
at internationally recognized schools, have gone
on to own successful businesses or to work for
public and private organizations in many
different countries. |
| |
|
The
Division hosts a number of research initiatives
and laboratories committed to the highest
research standards in the investigation and
dissemination of disciplinary and
interdisciplinary study and maintains close ties
with other divisions within the University, as
well as with research centers, universities, and
industries in Europe and all over the world. Its
outreach program engages faculty and students in
the organization of public conferences, art
exhibitions and performances, as well as in the
undertaking of humanitarian initiatives.
Intellectual leadership, creativity, and social
engagement are pursuits of the Division. |

Les Jeunes
ont la parole (JOP) |
|
|
| |
|
Each Fall and Spring semester, Art History students are offered the
privilege of participating in 'Les Jeunes ont la parole', one facet
of the Louvre Museum's Friday evening program Les nocturnes du
Louvre. Alongside peers from other Parisian institutions,
students may elect to do in-depth research on a specific work of art
in the Louvre, around which they enter into dialogue with young
visitors and/or the general public on two or three designated
evenings, in the languages of their choice. The program culminates
in both one AUP credit and a certificate from the Louvre. |
