The American Studies Program at UNC Charlotte is a dynamic academic program that provides undergraduate students the opportunity to study diverse aspects of American culture and the American experience using an interdisciplinary perspective. American Studies Courses draw on history, literature, art, music, religion, popular culture, political science, the media and other fields. These courses provide students with knowledge and experience in critical thinking, reading, and writing. Students also gain increased social and cultural awareness, improved communication skills, and creative problem-solving skills that integrate the various disciplines underlying American Studies.
The American Studies Program currently offers an undergraduate minor. Requirements for the American Studies Minor often overlap with those of such majors as History, English, Political Science, Religion, and Sociology, thus making for a flexible and functional minor.
