Faculty
UNC Asheville attracts to the Humanities Program experienced
and award-winning professors, department chairs and junior faculty.
Teachers represent nearly every department on campus, and thus an exciting
diversity of knowledge, perspective and critical approach. Though
each course is centered around a team-planned core, each section is
enlivened by the instructor's particular interests and expertise.
