Research and Scholarship

Advancing historical knowledge and insights to the wider world is central to the work of historians.

Our faculty excels as researchers and teachers. We have published books and articles with the world's top presses and academic journals. Our research has been supported by prestigious external funding agencies, and many faculty have won prizes for their publications.

Our undergraduate and graduate students are conducting research as well, mentored and supported by faculty members. Undergraduate students present their research at the annual Conference on Undergraduate Research and Engagement.
