SUMMARY:Presentation:Information Session: Accelerated Master’s Degree Program in Transcultural Studies
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn more about Transcultural Studies\, an interdisciplinary accelerated master's degree program designed to enable current undergraduate students in LSA to earn their MA degree with one additional year of study beyond their bachelor’s degree.\n\nTuesday\, February 17\, 2026 @ 4 PM\nWednesday\, February 18\, 2026 @ 4 PM\n\nThe fall application cycle is open to current LSA juniors.\nFall term applications are due March 15\, 2026.\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nDo you anticipate pursuing a PhD or a career involving international travel\, cross-cultural partnerships\, or collaborative work in a diverse workplace? U-M's accelerated MA program in Transcultural Studies can help you develop the historical\, theoretical\, and practical knowledge you need to navigate forward-looking graduate education and career pathways in an increasingly cosmopolitan and interconnected world. Transcultural Studies uses approaches from across the Humanities and Social Sciences to foster a critical and historically informed understanding of human communication and interaction across perceived boundaries of culture\, nationality\, race\, and religious identity.\n\nThis interdisciplinary program is intended to provide both advanced training and a capstone experience for current LSA undergraduates who anticipate pursuing a PhD or working in business or non-profit contexts where intercultural competency and a critical framework for thinking systematically about connections\, comparisons\, and translations among human communities will be desirable skills.
