American Studies

The American Studies major is an interdisciplinary program of study incorporating units of study from the Departments of English, Film Studies, History, Government and Music, and based in the School of Philosophical and Cultural Inquiry. It enables students to develop a broad, multi-faceted understanding of the United States, which remains the dominant cultural and political force in the twenty-first century, and has long loomed large in Australian life. Understanding the United States is critical for global citizens.

The American Studies Program is not part of the United States Studies Centre; for information on the Centre see its web site.
