A New Vision for the Humanities

The Mandel Center for the Humanities seeks to explore the pressing and far-reaching questions of the past, present and future using the interpretive capacities of the humanities, the social sciences and the creative arts. Serving as a hub to connect different parts of the Brandeis community and to link Brandeis with communities beyond, the Center hosts innovative programming, supports faculty and students in cutting-edge, globally oriented and public-facing research, and advances humanistic understanding across the boundaries of nation, discipline, and medium.
