The Department of History and Philosophy at Converse explores past events and dives into the fundamental questions of life, respectively.
Exploring history, you’ll dive into different historical periods, events, and cultures, discuss why they matter, and research how they have shaped today’s world. Through studying various historical contexts, you gain insights into how the past influences contemporary issues while enhancing your understanding of different worldviews and experiences.
The study of philosophy involves conceptual analysis of the fundamental nature of reality, values, and knowledge. Students are challenged to reflect upon broad questions of human identity, meaning, and moral responsibility. Intercultural and historical perspectives are given particular attention, and student research is encouraged.
