“The history of mankind is the instant between two strides taken by a traveler.” -Franz Kafka
History links the past, present, and future of every aspect of our lives – our common and divergent cultures and histories, our languages, societies, governments, economies, religions, and day-to-day customs and beliefs. To make history come alive and put it into context, you must see where it happened, think about why it happened, and witness the effects it has had on the place and people where it occurred.
Below, are recommended programs for History majors that will allow you to take a full load of major courses.
