Each semester at the College of Arts and Sciences, students can choose from hundreds of classes across the arts, humanities, sciences, and social sciences. Often, these choices are life-changing-students discover an unexpected intellectual passion, develop a different world view, or find the inspiration to pursue a new academic path.

And sometimes, students experience learning in a completely unexpected way, from mastering the basics of chemistry through cooking experiments, to understanding anatomy through dance. Here is a sampling of some of the inventive and even interdisciplinary ways students are learning across the College.
