History helps us understand the individuals, groups, ideas, and institutions that have shaped our world. It encourages critical analysis and helps develop your communication and writing skills.
At Mount Allison, History offers courses in a rich variety of both subject matter and interpretive approach through individualized programs.
Courses are regularly available at all levels in most major periods of Canadian, American, European, and Asian history.
Students will study the human experience in all its rich diversity by examining subjects like:
class and gender
wealth and poverty
faith and science
self and social identity
government and politics
war and peace
Unlike many programs, which begin with introductory courses, history offers courses on a diverse range of topics beginning in first year.
The number and variety of courses available increases each year, with the greatest selection in third year.
In fourth year there are also opportunities for independent studies, which permit you to pursue an interest in an area not covered by other courses.

policy analyst

archivist/librarian
foreign service officer
