Professor Emerita of Philosophy and Humanities Kristin Congdon reports the benefits of creating art.

This themed course explores how monsters are used in literature, film, philosophy and art across time to represent how science and technology shape our understanding of what it means to be human, alive or (un)dead.

The UCF campus will be closed for operations on Wednesday and Thursday, and classes are also canceled on Friday. All public events scheduled for those days will be canceled or rescheduled.

The positive impact the arts and humanities has on our community is evident. From the expertise our professors lend on a daily basis to the talents of our students, the people in our college accomplish great things. Read about them in our annual report, Spotlight 2022.

The College of Arts and Humanities welcomes the faculty members that joined our college this fall!

Students are encouraged to attend welcome events throughout the first week, meet with faculty and other students, and engage with academic resources.

The College of Arts and Humanities extends a welcome to new and familiar faces during the transition of some critical administrative and staff roles.

UCF awarded 22 faculty in the arts and humanities promotion and tenure. Consideration for promotion and tenure takes nearly an entire academic year as faculty are evaluated on three main areas: research, teaching and service.

Associate Dean Lynn Hepner ’95MA is retiring from UCF on August 7. Her ability to anticipate the needs of the college and to provide the right data at the right time has made her invaluable to CAH.

“We asked for a ‘little help from our friends’ this year, and our friends delivered,” says Jeff Moore, dean of the College of Arts and Humanities.
