The Department of History offers a Graduate Certificate in history that provides an array of courses for students interested in graduate-level studies in American, European, and World History. The certificate allows students to research historical topics with a focus on cultural, intellectual, political, social, and public history. Students can also complete courses across a range of topics for academic, personal, and professional development.

Application materials must be submitted to Graduate School.
