History is a liberal arts major. The point of a degree history is not for professors to tell you what you should think but for you to develop the skills that allow you to comprehend things and articulate convincing interpretations of your own. Its approach to learning—from rigorous quantitative analysis to close textual reading; from encouraging students to work with primary materials to helping them better acquaint themselves with some of the important cultures of the world; from insistence on excellence in communication to mastery of research methods—prepares students for the challenges of a rapidly-changing world.

History’s approaches are wide-ranging and its topics almost unlimited. Even a casual glance at the course offerings in the history department reveals a class for every taste and interest, from the history of money to the persistence of memory and the alchemy of identity. With more joint-majors than any other discipline at Emory, history is the interdisciplinary approach par excellence.

In a world transformed by the powerful tides of globalization, History provides an intellectual toolkit for dealing with complex international realities. Our students’ immersion in place-based knowledge and understanding of how unintended consequences shape our lives help them to understand an increasingly complex world. At Emory, the history department takes this responsibility seriously. Through our Cuttino Grants and Cuttino Scholarships, our best majors are able to undertake major research initiatives abroad between their senior and junior years.
