Department of History

Department of History

History shapes who you are as a person, community and world. Understanding history will help you analyze the past and provide a broader perspective of the future.

As a History student, you will gain strong critical thinking skills allowing you to strategically solve a problem and form a solid argument.

The History Department aims to offset parochialism and ethnocentrism by offering courses dealing with as many as possible of the world's civilization, nations, and peoples.
