The College of Humanities in the Twenty-first Century

Abstract

This paper presents the new and various initiatives we are taking in the College of Humanities at the University of Arizona to partner with professional colleges and other entities on and off campus. The discussion is organized as follows: 1. Our starting definition and vision for the humanities and for our College of Humanities in the so-called fourth industrial revolution (World Economic Forum); 2. The branding and structure we established to accomplish this vision; 3. The new interdisciplinary degrees in applied humanities and partnerships we implemented and are implementing.
