The Faculty of Humanities plays two roles in the academic life of the university. The first is to offer degree-granting programs on both the undergraduate and graduate levels; the second is to provide a large array of general education requirements, foreign language courses, and special programs designed for students at the various stages of their academic careers.

Three departments are housed under the Faculty of Humanities:

• Department of English, Translation, and Education
• Department of Mass Communication
• Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences
