  • What is CHID?

    CHID is a one-of-a-kind program where students enjoy the freedom of an interdisciplinary liberal arts degree within the context of a renowned research university.

    About CHID

  • If you can dream it, you can achieve it

    We offer students the freedom to tailor their education to their own intellectual interests and professional goals.

    Our Courses

  • CHID Turns 40

    40 years ago, we founded an undergraduate program centered on student leadership, radical pedagogies, and public service. Today, these core values remain our north star.

    Our History

  • Question. Critique. Create.

    Our students ask questions that matter, think critically about education, and creatively express their understanding within a community of learners.

    Our Program

  • Transformational Travel

    Through engagement with local scholars, artists, political leaders, activists, and community members, our study abroad programs prepare students to engage with an increasingly globalized world.
