Academics

Department of Humanities

Competency in English, with strong reading, writing, and critical thinking skills, provides the foundation for future academic and professional success. In today's workplace, it's not enough to have technical skills. You need to be able to make good decisions and to think critically with a global perspective. That is why a college education requires course work in the liberal arts - composition, reading, religion, philosophy, literature, and more. In Parkland's Department of Humanities, you will acquire the skills that sharpen your intellect.

The Humanities Department offers learning opportunities at varying skill levels. For example, not everyone comes to Parkland ready for college-level English, and for those students we offer developmental English, and many other support services including English as a Second Language (ESL). Students looking for a challenge will find it in our Honors Program. Finally, in the Learning Communities, the same group of students take interrelated courses that are team taught and offer abundant personal interaction with classmates and faculty.
