Overview

The wide-ranging curriculum covers North American, European, African, Asian, Latin American, and Middle Eastern history.

History students from Furman University not only learn about history—the critical study of the past—but in the process, they learn how to read critically, analyze thoroughly, synthesize concisely, and write effectively. They teach communication and problem-solving skills that are applicable across all disciplines and professions.
