The Department of History
Ready to discover a passion for the past?
Historians are the great contextualizers of society. They excavate and study the past, and they give us the context to better understand our future.
In the Department of History at Georgia Southern University, our world-class faculty specialize in the exploration of Georgia history, women’s history, maritime and naval history, military history and more. They are dynamic and engaging teachers and nationally and internationally known scholars.
Under their direction, you’ll not only get a range of courses to satisfy just about any historical interest, but you’ll also get opportunities to work in the field on historical sites with the hands-on experience you’ll need in your career.
