The program particularly excels in areas like the American West, border regions with Canada and Mexico, historical studies, literary analysis, folk traditions, creative nonfiction writing, and visual culture/environmental studies.

An American studies education prepares graduates for various professional paths by developing their ability to interpret diverse cultural forms.
