See history in action

Connect with people, and hear their personal history and how they fit into the larger historical narrative. Our students regularly have internships at renowned museums and libraries — both domestic and international.

We offer a diverse selection of courses, covering every continent and studying topics as varied as gender, medicine, hip hop, clothes, war, race, revolution, movies, food, and many other things you might not expect in a history class. Adding a second major or minor is easy and broadens options for your future. And our interdisciplinary minors, like museum studies and Africana studies, help you gain a better understanding of important topics in today’s world.
