The field of American studies extends across a broad spectrum of disciplines to offer integrating perspectives on American experiences, ideas, and cultural expressions. In this respect, American studies is decidedly interdisciplinary in its approaches, but at the same time it is very much a field unto itself, generating its own lines of inquiry concerning American cultures.
The American Studies Program includes overseas exchanges with the University of Derby, U.K., and Newcastle University, U.K., which are both open to all IUPUI students.
