History at North Park

 

The study of history is an essential component of self-understanding and cultural identity.  The major in history engages students deeply and actively in their own world through disciplined reflection on the significant persons, events and dynamics which have helped to create it and give it meaning.  The major gives students both breadth and depth of understanding through comparative study of world civilizations and their development over time, as well as specialized courses in the history of the United States, Europe, Africa and the Middle East.  It provides the tools of critical analysis, evaluation of evidence and historical  argumentation, and examination of the methodologies and schools of historical writing.  As stewards of public memory, historians have a unique calling to serve the community, the Church and the world.
