Overview

The History major at Brandeis University is the embodiment of a liberal education. It is the attempt to understand the human story through the lens of time and place. In our interconnected world, in which both events and our awareness of them occur with increasing speed, a deep and nuanced sense of the past has never been more important. It is vital to interpreting the world today, and to envisioning what it might be tomorrow.
