Program Overview

American Studies is a shorthand term for the cross-disciplinary study of culture and society in North America. Students in the field explore issues of racial and ethnic difference, structures of power, the arts, historical change, media and politics, sexuality and gender, social movements, material culture, and the role of the United States in larger global contexts. They do so drawing creatively on methods and approaches from several disciplines. UTK's American Studies faculty represents more than a dozen different departments.
