Program Description

The Department of Holocaust and Genocide Studies (HGS) at Keene State is the only four-year BA degree of its kind in the United States with both a major and a minor. The program prepares students to analyze contemporary political situations, think critically about ethical responsibility, and respond actively to injustice. As an interdisciplinary department, our students take courses from core faculty with training in history, peace studies, political psychology, education, and modern languages; as well as courses from affiliated faculty trained in sociology, music, literature, philosophy, film studies, women and gender studies, and American studies.

The Holocaust and Genocide Studies program directs undergraduates in a broad area of a study linking history, literature, film, philosophy, psychology, women’s studies, religious studies, sociology, and more. With an understanding of such issues as prejudice, discrimination, and racism, you’ll be equipped to analyze contemporary political situations, think critically about ethical responsibility, and respond actively to injustice.
