Welcome Home!

The College of Arts and Humanities is home for students and faculty engaged in the widest variety of artistic and humanistic pursuits in the San Joaquín Valley.

As the heart of Fresno State, we study the artistic expression, communication skills, humanistic values, and cultural awareness that form the foundation of scholarship and creative activities. Our nine departments plus the Armenian Studies Program are central to the University’s General Education program and offer dozens of fascinating majors and minors.

Have a wonderful time finding your inspiration for life!

—Dean Honora Chapman
