Why Study Humanities at IIT?

IIT's B.S. in Humanities is a flexible degree program aimed at students who are interested in the study of history, philosophy, literature, art & architectural history, and communication from a technological point of view, and in the study of science and technology from a humanistic point of view. It is an excellent liberal education, and prepares students for graduate studies in the humanities and social sciences and for professional programs in law and medicine.

Within this major, students can choose concentrations in literature, linguistics, philosophy, history, and communication.

For more information visit the Bachelor of Science in Humanities program.
