Advanced Study in the Liberal Arts
The Master of Liberal Arts is an interdisciplinary degree that offers students the opportunity to take courses from a variety of graduate programs in the College of Liberal Arts and elsewhere in the university in consultation with the MLA Director. The MLA program is especially strong in the following general areas: American Studies; Women's Studies; Arts and Society. Outside these areas, the MLA can be tailored to your own particular interests, and students are encouraged to develop an individual focus, based on their personal and professional objectives, and with the advice of the MLA Director.
