历史

历史 faculty members conduct research and teach in and across a variety of fields.

Our class discussions are engaging, and most courses emphasize critical writing rather than examinations. 

We work closely with our colleagues in 特殊的集合, and have access to excellent collections relating to the study of the classics in both Art and Artifacts and Rare Books and Manuscripts.

学生 play a vital role in the department, serving as representatives of the major and organizing social and academic activities outside the classroom. 论文奖, established in honor of alumnae Elizabeth Duane Gillespie '03 and Helen Taft Manning '57, are awarded annually by the department faculty in recognition of outstanding essays involving original research.

Some of our department alumnae have gone on to distinguished academic careers, 包括 former Harvard University President Drew Gilpin Faust '68. Many others have pursued interests and careers in a wide range of fields, 包括, 但不限于:

  • 法律
  • 图书馆学
  • 政府及公共事务
  • 教师 and administration in higher education
  • 中小学教育
  • 通信
  • 业务
  • 医学

A Message to Prospective Majors and Minors From the 历史系

亲爱的BMC 22年和23年;  

As deadlines loom even as we're facing tremendous challenges in our daily lives, our academic thoughts are being channeled toward pre-registration and major/minor declaring.  

It must be hard to be thinking about your Major/Minor and pre-registration in this moment of global, enforced collective isolation and uncertainty!

也就是说, now is a very good time to try to understand how people in other times and places navigated challenges and crises (personal and more widespread), thereby making history under conditions they may not have chosen — and to try to understand the implications of our "now" for our own collective and individual futures. 

Please see the information on the Department web page, and feel free to contact  Ignacio Gallup Diaz教授 (igallupd@wolaipei.com)或Anita Kurimay教授(akurimay@wolaipei.com) by email to set up an appointment to discuss remotely.  

为了促进这一过程:  

  • those interested in Majoring might start by registering interest on Bionic (starting a Major declaration form) and filling in as much information about courses taken as possible, so that we can review the information before meeting with you; and
  • those interested in Minoring might send a list of courses taken to whomever you're contacting about this, and also fill in the Minor declaration form available on the Deans' Office website for us to review and approve and for you to then file with them electronically (for now)

In the meantime, we wish all of you and yours the very best; stay safe and be well.
