All courses are taught by present and former University of Arizona professors selected for their scholarly accomplishments and exceptional teaching abilities. The seminars give students the opportunity to tap into the minds of first-rate educators who are leaders in their fields of study.

This continuing education program provides university-level learning simply for the joy of learning. There are no tests or papers. Optional reading lists are provided so students can get the most from the experience.

Seminar students are a group of like-minded individuals who want to discover new ideas and deepen their life experiences.” Humanities Seminars students will have the opportunity to get acquainted with both adult education classmates and their professors.

“The University of Arizona’s Humanities Seminars Program has offered the community stimulating interdisciplinary conversations for more than a quarter century.” Please join them in this adventure in adult education.
