School of Arts, Humanities and Communications
Faculty and students in the arts, humanities and communications work together with intellectual passion to explore their fields. The strong programs in each area are enriched by interdisciplinary projects that create a unique cultural environment that is Susquehanna University. Our students are challenged to engage in professional discipline as they pursue career interests in the performing and liberal arts.
