One of the Department's greatest strengths is its diversity. We offer more than forty different courses each semester. They cover a wide range of cultures, time periods, and themes, reflecting the unusually diverse backgrounds, perspectives and interests of the faculty.

Some comments from recent graduates:

"History allowed me to be theoretical and critical in my thinking with the ability to make specific comparisons and analogies with the information I acquired."

"Villanova has an excellent history program with courses on a wide variety of subjects offered each semester."

"The history department has really exceeded my expectations...everyone has been professional as well as warm and welcoming."
