Mission
Statement
The mission of the Humanities Center is to nurture interdisciplinary,
transdisciplinary, and disciplinary work in the humanities and arts
through competitions, seminars, discussion groups, and other programs
for Wayne State's humanities and arts faculty and students and for
visiting scholars and artists. The Center also seeks to promote excellence
in research and creative endeavors through rigorous peer review of
proposals submitted to it for funding; and to complement the work
of humanities and arts departments, programs, and other centers within
the university by providing additional resources to faculty and students.
By promoting and funding programs that involve community participants,
the Center supports the university's urban mission. Through its various
programs the Center is a site to collect, promote, and celebrate the
diverse humanistic talents of WSU's academic citizens and to encourage
innovation and excellence in the humanities and arts. |
