Department of History
The Greensboro College history department is led by scholar-educators who focus on not only the classic historical texts and contexts, but challenge the narratives and conceptions of the past through critical inquiry and hands-on field experience.
Students of history at Greensboro College are introduced to history on every scale – from global/world to local, like the history of the North Carolina Piedmont – and have the opportunity to complete personalized, one-on-one research projects under the direction of faculty, as well as internships in public history. Through this program, students not only grapple with the challenges of the past but learn how to apply those lessons as opportunities for a better future.
