HISTORY<br />
The past is very much our<br />
present: HIST at <strong>MMC</strong><br />
History has traditionally been a go-to major for undergraduates who<br />
want to underst<strong>and</strong> themselves <strong>and</strong> their world in context. Where we<br />
are now—<strong>and</strong> where we’re headed—is embedded in history. This is<br />
still the spirit of the major at <strong>MMC</strong>, but our interdisciplinary program<br />
puts you in charge of the exploration. Mix <strong>and</strong> match courses from 23<br />
available “areas of inquiry” to tailor a program to your exact historical<br />
interests. Our innovative program teaches the fundamental skills that the<br />
History major is known for—analyzing sources, evaluating evidence, <strong>and</strong><br />
constructing effective written <strong>and</strong> oral arguments—but it changes the<br />
game by placing you at the center of the inquiry.<br />

“The variety of classes<br />
offered allowed me to<br />
realize my passion for<br />
Asian history. The small<br />
class sizes really foster<br />
student-professor<br />
engagement, as well as<br />
friendships with likeminded<br />
peers.”<br />
— Karyl Balatbat ’19<br />
