The Undergraduate Certificate in Applied History program will train future students to harness historical knowledge and thinking to shape politics and public policy by “thinking in time.” The program’s curriculum will teach students to examine contemporary political and policy issues through the analysis of historical precedent and historical parallels. This rigorous applied history approach will prepare students as informed citizens and responsible policymakers by showing them how historical knowledge and historical thinking can produce better decisions.
