Centers and Initiatives

The Institute of Arts and Humanities houses interdisciplinary centers and affiliate groups that spearhead the production of cutting‐edge scholarship, collaboration, and public engagement. 

 

Analytical Writing Program

AWP creates an environment in which a diverse population of students can come together as a community to work on a common goal: improving their writing.
