Note: McGill’s new Course Catalogue will replace the eCalendar. The Course Catalogue is expected to go live the week of April 22nd. When the new site is published, "mcgill.ca/study" will be redirected to the new Course Catalogue website.
Course information on this site is not reflective of offerings for the 2025–2026 academic year. Some irregularities may occur as we move operations to the incoming Course Catalogue.
The largest faculty at the University, Arts is committed to remaining at the forefront of intellectual inquiry in our continually changing world. The humanities and social science disciplines that constitute the Faculty share a common endeavor: to better understand the human condition in order to improve it. A McGill Arts education provides you with the opportunity to explore the rich diversity of human endeavour and creative expression. It enables you to develop linguistic, critical and analytical skills that will allow you to approach a question or issue from a variety of perspectives, to respond effectively to new developments, and to adapt to changing circumstances. These skills are highly sought after in a broad range of professional, academic, cultural, service, and business careers.
