Curriculum

Students planning to complete the Humanities Gateway Program in two semesters take four Humanities Gateway courses during the first year.

For the 2026-2027 academic year, the two courses to be offered in the Fall semester are: HMTS 125 Epic Quests, and HMTS 124 Roman Philosophy.  In the Spring the courses to be offered are: HMTS 217 Gender and Sexuality in the Christian Tradition and HMTS 220 Looking for Humanity in Gods, Angels, Monsters, Aliens and Robots.  Beginning in the 2026-2027 academic year, students in the Humanities Gateway Program will also take part in a series of monthly colloquium meetings that foreground the thematic connections between their HMTS courses.  At the end of the ’26-’27 academic year, current HMTS students will participate in a symposium that allows them to articulate the connections they have been able to forge across the four-core courses and with other disciplines and areas of study.
