Humanities

Humanities refer to a broad range of subjects including art, history, philosophy, music, theatre, literature, ethics, and religion. A humanities student at College of the Siskiyous studies the human experience in its broadest sense by working with a variety of disciplines in order to acquire a deeper understanding of themselves, civilization, and the world. The humanities curriculum academically prepares the student for transfer to a university to complete a baccalaureate degree in a related field. Please check with a counselor for specific transfer requirements.
