Humanities

The Northwood Humanities program is a foundational element of each student’s academic experience. All students are required to take multiple credits in humanities courses each year of their Northwood career. 

 

In addition to the rigorous study of history and literature, the Northwood Humanities program offers unique multidisciplinary opportunities built out of a response to real-world events and questions relevant to the lives of our community.  Courses in the Humanities program draw on modes of thinking and engaging with our world derived from the traditions of philosophy, psychology, anthropology, politics, economics, geography, religion, music, poetry, and art. 

 

Multiple honors and AP-level courses are also offered throughout the disciplines in the Humanities department including the Advanced Humanities Research Program.

 

 

 

We invite all prospective families and students to join Northwood coaches, program directors and administrators for a virtual open house showcasing our academic curriculum, school community, and athletic programs.

 

Meet our coaches, learn more about the Northwood student-athlete experience, and hear what makes each of our programs unique.

 

Please select the session that best matches your student’s interests.
