DescriptionWe are the products of our collective experiences, and the continual upheaval and development of human society demands that individuals and institutions adapt to new changes. The historian’s obligation is to sharpen our awareness of the mechanics of change and, so far as possible, to explain it.

As a student of the History program at McMaster, you will develop essential research and communication skills. You’ll learn to think critically, to ask the right questions and, when you’ve found the answers, to present your evidence in a logical way. You will learn that historians are faced with many intriguing questions when dealing with the past: not merely is this the truth?, but whose truth is this? Most of all, perhaps, you will learn to think globally, by discovering how developments in one part of the world have far-reaching effects elsewhere.
