As one of the largest providers of undergraduate general education courses, in addition to our majors, the faculty of the history department takes teaching seriously. Our professors have received recognition and awards for their teaching, and we continuously work to improve the breadth, depth, and quality of our undergraduate courses. Our graduate student teaching assistants have also won accolades for their teaching, and the department\u2019s TA training program has become the basis for teaching instruction across the wider campus community. We truly believe that history matters.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n \n
