BA in American Studies

Completing an American Studies degree prepares you to enter a range of graduate and professional programs, including law school, doctoral programs, and others. The skills acquired in the program are also useful for work in non-profit organizations, activist groups, media, government, and cultural and artistic fields, to name a few. Our programs explore socio-historical contexts and cultural perspectives that complement other fields of study at AU. 100% of our students have secured full-time employment or graduate school acceptance upon completing the requirements for the American Studies program.
