Invest in Liberal and Creative Arts
Research shows courses in the arts, humanities and social sciences prepare students to think critically, communicate effectively, develop new ideas, adapt and contribute in meaningful ways.
At DU, our CAHSS students demonstrate the value and dedication we have to a liberal and creative arts education. Through your support, our students are:
- Using internship grants to examine urban social inequalities as part of our new Keystone Experience
- Collaborating with faculty and alumni to create, promote and distribute films
- Engaging in political discourse through the Center on American Politics
Your support is also transforming the College by empowering faculty.
- The Dean's Fund for Excellence supports the research and creative work of our faculty and enable students to explore the world, test out new theories and ideas and allows faculty and students to collaborate and innovate across the College
- The Center for Innovation in the Liberal & Creative Arts supports faculty innovation
- The Center for Art Collection Ethics provides postgraduate training opportunities for art museum and trade professionals
CAHSS programs give students the chance to conduct research in the field alongside faculty whose own research appears in such publications as the New York Times, The Hill, The American Scholar and Time.
