The Center for the Humanities at the University of Missouri-St. Louis is the only center of its kind in the region and in the entire state. The Center for the Humanities has two central objectives: to provide visibility and focus for humanities activities at UMSL and to attract and channel resources for the support of interdisciplinary humanistic inquiry.
The University of Missouri-St. Louis, along with Webster University and Southern Illinios University Edwardsville, is proud to sponsor Theory and Society, a refereed, interdisciplinary journal of social theory and practices, published by Springer in The Netherlands.
The Center for the Humanities produces these events and series:
These UMSL faculty members provide the center with advice on programming, presenters, and audience building. Member terms are open-ended.
The Center for Humanities is a unit of the office for Academic Affairs of the University of Missouri-St. Louis. While most of the Center's funding comes from Academic Affairs, the Center for Humanities constantly pursues additional financial support and grants to enhance current programs and to establish new ones.
