Department of History

http://history.unc.edu/

Parent Unit: College of Arts & Sciences

Mission/Description

The History Department thus seeks to prepare students for future careers, for the responsibilities of citizenship in a democratic society, and for the challenging ambiguities that everyone encounters in their relations with others—no matter what they do or where they go in the world. Our courses encourage a comparative, analytical approach to diverse cultures, historical eras, social conflicts, famous events, influential ideas, and fascinating human lives. History offers an imaginative entry into every kind of human activity because everything that people do has a history.
