Waterloo Arts offers 37 distinct graduate programs that advance understanding and practice in diverse fields including digital media, cognitive neuroscience, global governance, philosophy of science, and public issues anthropology – among many others. As a faculty based in a university dedicated to global views and connections, Arts leads the conversation about how people and society can thrive in a technology-driven and globalized context.
Whether traditional research-based or professional cross-disciplinary, Arts graduate studies are relevant for today. You may find graduate students in languages applying gamification, students in anthropology documenting impacts of climate change, students in political science examining security issues via social media, or students in digital media working at Google Canada.
Among our many disciplines in Arts, the traditional fields of inquiry often provide a springboard from which our faculty and students approach current and topical concerns. We seek and create original approaches, ask new questions, and foster dialogue about some of the most daunting challenges facing us today.
