University of Maryland College of Arts & Humanities Home

Whatever your interests and aspirations, ARHU is committed to providing the knowledge, skills and opportunities all our students need to write their own stories and chart their own paths.

"The openness and friendliness of the faculty and staff have been a major driving force in my success as a student and professional. Their willingness to provide resources has opened up exciting opportunities and given me a substantial launching pad for my professional development."

“I love the community here. The university offers a ton of resources and opportunities to get involved, while the arts and humanities provide an intimate community to grow and learn alongside faculty and students. I feel supported and challenged by my professors and peers.”

“I feel supported by my professors as I prepare for a future museum career in American art. I’m taking theories from class and applying them in the art galleries on campus and as a fellow at The Phillips Collection in D.C. In my roles, I give tours, help with outreach and research the collections.”

"I applied both of my majors and experienced diplomacy by interning at the Embassy of Mexico. Studying abroad in Barcelona gave me another opportunity to use my Spanish and deepen my cultural immersion. UMD has provided the skills, resources and experiences needed for my future career."
