HISTORY
Welcome
Welcome to the History Department website.  Our department consists of six full-time members and a network of adjunct instructors.  Dedicated professionals who are committed both to their scholarship and to their students' academic success, they cover a wide range of fields including North and Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, and East Asia.  They oversee a 33-credit major within which some 90 students are currently enrolled, and they administer a number of ancillary programs in area studies, service learning, and study abroad as well as a chapter of the national history honor society, Phi Alpha Theta.  In addition, the department encourages and offers support for internships and independent study projects that offer students opportunities to refine their research and writing skills while pursuing specialized learning objectives, and numerous study abroad opportunities to enhance their global perspectives.

We are a dynamic and growing department, and we invite you to explore the links below.  Follow-up questions may be addressed to the History Department Chair, Dr. Thomas D. Curran, at 203-371-7744 or currant@sacredheart.edu.
