Research and creative activity in the College of Liberal Arts covers a wide spectrum from art to psychology. Our faculty receive support for their work from the National Institutes of Mental Health, the National Science Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Fulbright Foundation, and many other external agencies.

The College's Research Center for Urban Cultural History brings together faculty from the humanities, social sciences and the arts in interdisciplinary projects that address the complex histories of cities past and present.
