Established
in 1967, the American Studies Program at Michigan State University
offers students the opportunity to examine American culture in all
its diversity from an interdisciplinary perspective. While the disciplines
of history, literature, material culture, and museum studies have
traditional appeal, we encourage our students to combine disciplines
in non-traditional ways by drawing upon the resources of the entire
university. Distinguished faculty offer courses in a wide variety
of disciplines and interdisciplinary themes that probe the cultural
and social dynamics of American civilization. Because
of the program's flexibility, you may pursue your intellectual interests
in areas as diverse as popular culture, ethnic studies, women's studies,
Native American studies, science and technology studies, and African-American
studies. Michigan State University's American Studies Program attracts
American and international students from a variety of social and cultural
backgrounds. Besides access to its faculty, MSU provides other resources
to individuals interested in studying American culture. The MSU libraries
contain more than four million volumes as well as the Russel B. Nye
Popular Culture Collection and the National Voice Library. |
