INFORMATION SESSIONS

Tuesday, March 6 at 4pm

Wednesday, March 7 at 4pm
Angell Hall, Room 3222

Thursday, March 8 at 4pm
South Thayer Building, Room 6000

 

This interdisciplinary program is intended to provide both advanced training and a capstone experience for current LSA undergraduates who anticipate pursuing a PhD or working in other professional settings where intercultural competency and a critical framework for thinking systematically about connections, comparisons, and translations among human communities will be desirable skills.

Transcultural Studies uses approaches from across the Humanities and Social Sciences to foster a critical and historically informed understanding of human communication and interaction across perceived boundaries of language, culture, nationality race, and religious identity. The program allows you to earn a UM Master’s Degree with one additional year of study beyond the BA.

Students who are juniors this year are eligible to apply; applications are due April 1. For more information, see the Program in Transcultural Studies website or email lsa-tcsma@umich.edu.
