Arts & Sciences is home to the College of Arts & Sciences as well as graduate programs across its many departments. The current Dean of the Faculty is Feng Sheng Hu, the Lucille P. Markey Distinguished Professor in Arts & Sciences.[1]

Arts & Sciences students have a strong track record in national and international fellowship competitions.[2] For example, of Washington University's 11 Fulbright Scholarship recipients in 2011, 7 were recent alumni of the College of Arts & Sciences, and 3 were Arts & Sciences graduate students.[3] Additionally, two students were selected as Rhodes Scholars in 2017-2018 and another student was a Rhodes Scholarship finalist in 2016.
