English, History, & Humanities (ENHH)

The Department of English, History, & Humanities has an energetic and diverse faculty who nurture over 150 majors from varied degree programs. ENHH also helps students meet the general education requirements necessary for graduation. The Department gives students the opportunity to study with dedicated teachers, most of whom publish in their fields. Because of our highly approachable teachers and generally small class sizes, students benefit from personal attention and from opportunities for research and publishing. Students at LSUA enjoy learning environments that encourage them to think critically and express themselves effectively.
