Humanity

Understanding what it is to be human is a question explored across all cultures and societies. As we engage with this question on an international stage, we seek to learn collaboratively and engage with an array of voices at Yale, in New Haven, and across the globe. Through the study and teaching of disciplines such as language, arts, history, philosophy, religion, literature, and the various social sciences, we seek to inspire the next generation to never lose sight of the wonder and scope of human potential across the world. In our interdisciplinary translation work, we leverage essential literary, social, political, economic, legal, technological, and medical dimensions that are increasingly central to the workings of the contemporary world.
