The Department of History is a vibrant community of scholar-teachers and staff, dedicated to quality undergraduate and graduate education, excellence in research and service to the University, our communities and our profession.  The department offers a Bachelor’s degree in History, as well as a Master’s and a Doctorate, and supervises two vital components of the general education requirements for undergraduates: the Humanities in the Western Tradition and the World Civilizations programs.  Members of our faculty also direct the Pan-African Center for Community Studies, the Sally Miller Center for the Humanities, and the Northeast Ohio Journal of History.  We also sponsor a series of lectures, including the Knepper Lecture and others through the Pan-African Center and the Miller Center.  We welcome your interest in the department.
