Master of Arts Program In the Humanities (MAPH) University of Chicago Master of Arts Program in the Humanities (MAPH)

The University of Chicago’s Master of Arts Program in the Humanities (MAPH) serves a diverse community of students engaged in innovative intellectual work that draws on the remarkable resources of the Humanities Division at Chicago. A shared commitment to rigorous humanistic inquiry—the dual cornerstones of which are the MAPH Core course and the thesis—creates a strong sense of fellowship among MA

PH students. The array of projects, academic interests, and backgrounds our students bring to the program fosters a rich conversation that makes MAPH a uniquely engrossing academic environment. A glance at past MAPH thesis titles reveals the intellectual and creative diversity of the program as well as our commitment to supporting forward-looking, interdisciplinary graduate-level work in the humanities.
