Humanities Careers, CMU Graduates
Our humanities graduates tackle complex problems, but they also know that problems don’t come already tagged. They are often the ones who can decide what is a problem to begin with, because they have the imagination, social, political and moral consciousness to figure out what challenges the world. Dietrich College humanities graduates possess the skills to effectively tackle these problems on their own and in collaboration with experts in other disciplines.
Humanities majors are among the most sought after by employers.
They bring not only a broad diversity of skills but also the ability to continually acquire new skills, setting them up for long-term career growth.
