About the School of Humanities
The University of Iceland offers diverse academic programmes in the humanities and is the only university in the country offering programmes at all levels within the humanities. The School of Humanities comprises four faculties: Faculty of Foreign Languages and Culture; Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies; Faculty of Icelandic and Comparative Cultural Studies; and Faculty of History and Philosophy. While each faculty constitutes a separate academic unit, students can choose to pursue a subsidiary subject, or individual courses, not only in other programmes within the respective faculty, but also in other faculties, or even at other schools within the university.
