Research-intensive universities have long struggled to reconcile
the imperative of specialized learning with the need for a broader,
more liberal education. Combining Two Cultures provides a
comprehensive account of a degree program at a distinguished
Canadian university, McMaster, aimed at accomplishing this
synthesis. This innovative program has stood up well over more than
two decades. It has a curriculum balanced between arts and sciences
and is committed to developing broadly applicable intellectual
skills, above all those that underlie scholarly inquiry into
questions of importance to students and to the society they live
in. It attempts to harmonize the excitement of exploring a broad
range of fields with students' needs to meet the requirements for
advanced study in professional and academic graduate disciplines.
This book offers insights into the challenges of planning and
establishing a program of this kind. Brief personal reflections
from many of the program's graduates, firsthand observations from
current students, and instructors' accounts of their experiences
give a vivid sense of what the program has meant to its
participants.
