Department of History

Discover the Past, Shape the Future

Whether you're curious about a single course or considering a degree, the Department of History offers a range of options to match your interests and goals. Students can pursue a History Major, Minor, or Honours Program, all of which provide a strong foundation in historical research, writing, and critical analysis.

 We also offer new and emerging programs that connect academic study with professional opportunities:

  • The MA in Applied History, combining graduate-level training with hands-on experience in archives, museums, and research roles
  • The Certificate in Museum and Heritage Studies, designed for students interested in curatorial work, public history, and cultural preservation
  • Coming soon: the Certificate in Canadian Studies, for students seeking a deeper understanding of Canadian history, identity, and institutions

 Graduates from our programs pursue careers across a wide range of sectors, including education, public policy, law, publishing, journalism, archives, and museums. Many also go on to advanced study in Canada and abroad.
