History
As many of you know, on 1 July 2009 ASU’s Department of History was reborn as the Faculty of History, joining the Faculties of Philosophy and of Religious Studies in the new School of Historical, Philosophical and Religious Studies. Amid many changes, a good deal will remain the same. The forty-plus historians who make up the Faculty will continue to preside over one of the largest and strongest undergraduate history programs in the country, serving around 1000 majors and covering the full range of topics, periods, and regions in world history; and will continue to oversee a vibrant graduate program, maintaining its traditional strengths in North American, European, South and East Asia, Latin American, Women’s, and Public History, and now offering certificates in Environmental History and in World & Global History. The Faculty is proud to host Frontiers: A Journal of Women’s Studies and the on-line discussion list H-Amindian; and will maintain its close relations with affiliated programs such as the Melikian Center for Russian, Eurasian, and East European Studies, and the Jewish Studies Center.
