Explore the past to navigate today’s world.
Study the past to understand the world you live in. At the University at Buffalo, history is active, global and deeply connected to today’s most important questions about power, justice and change. You will learn in small, discussion-based classes with faculty who bring their research into the classroom and challenge you to think critically, write clearly and see issues from many perspectives. If you are curious about how the world came to be—and how you can shape what comes next—history at UB is a powerful place to begin.
