Founded in 1952, Emory’s Graduate Institute of the Liberal Arts (ILA) was one of the first interdisciplinary Ph.D programs in the United States. Today, the ILA provides a unique, interdisciplinary environment for the pursuit of intellectual projects that cross conventional disciplinary and methodological boundaries, particularly those between the social sciences and humanities. The Institute has a tradition of fostering emergent fields of study and has encouraged the practice of new modes of inquiry both at Emory and beyond, through its far-flung alumni. It continues to provide a challenging, interdisciplinary space for both faculty and students to pursue theoretically sophisticated and historically grounded studies of culture and society.
