Departments & Programs

Our Curriculum

Kenyon’s curriculum covers the full range of academic fields. There are 18 departments, most of them focusing on a single traditional discipline — philosophy, physics, and so on. In addition, we offer 13 interdisciplinary programs, reflecting the academic reality that important insights often draw on multiple fields. So if you decide to study neuroscience, you will take classes in biology chemistry, and psychology. If your interest is in Asian and Middle East studies, you’ll get the perspectives of such fields as art, history, literature and religious studies.
