Overview
The Program
History is the pivotal discipline at the intersection of the social sciences and the humanities, instilling rigorous fact-based empirical habits of thought like those of scientists, integrated with social, cultural, and gender analyses of humanists, always recognizing the value of human empathy. Georgetown historians not only bring strengths in political and environmental, social and cultural studies engaging societies across the world—we are developing new emphases at the intersection of science and society.
History is not committed to one analytical perspective, but the integration of many. Historians analyze power, technology, and production, social relations and culture, war and peace, environment and gender, and more. We use textual sources and archival materials, quantitative studies, oral inquiries, and more. Ultimately the goal is the integrated analysis of how societies change—in the Foreign Service - International History programfrom Georgetown University we emphasize how global interactions shape key processes of change.
