History plays a crucial role in comprehending our global context. How do we define concepts like gender, race, social class, faith, governance, imperialism, and economic systems? What constitutes nations like the United States, China, the UK, and Ireland? How do organizations like NATO and the European Union function? Our historical scholars illuminate contemporary society by examining ancient civilizations, medieval times, cultural rebirths, religious transformations, and revolutionary movements spanning Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia. Starting in their inaugural year, we empower our students to independently explore these diverse historical narratives to grasp our collective origins. From day one of your academic journey, you'll engage in intimate seminars led by distinguished history professors. Our comprehensive chronological and geographical scope, combined with our emphasis on student autonomy and early small-group instruction, distinguishes our program from comparable institutions.
