American Studies is an academic discipline concerned with the diversity of the American experience; it is a liberal arts program designed to provide students with an opportunity for multidisciplinary study of the culture of the United States through a variety of perspectives, including history, art, music, literature, film, ethnic studies, and gender studies. Having a cultural studies focus, the program examines America through forms of expression and through its major social, economic, and political structures, both in the past and the present.
