Initiative on Arts and Humanities
 This initiative will build on the University’s strengths in the arts and humanities to expand interdisciplinary and collaborative efforts.
In the late 1990s, the University developed and supported the Humanities Institute and a new educational partnership with the Guthrie Theater. At the core of this expanded effort will be the creation of the University of Minnesota Institute for Advanced Study that will promote and support distinguished, path-breaking research and creative work at the intersection of the arts, humanities, and social sciences.
The initiative will seek to transform the arts and humanities at the University and beyond by developing a new interdisciplinary arts and humanities curriculum, supporting new creative processes and works of art, and deepening collaborations with other arts organizations and educators in the community.
Initiative leader: Steven J. Rosenstone, Dean of the College of Liberal Arts, at rosen060@umn.edu or 612-626-8039
