| Description: | Complex dynamics have shaped modern life. Understand how we arrived here by studying history through topics such as politics, war, revolution, sports, gender, sexuality and culture. Connect with the past in innovative ways. You might record a podcast, prepare a briefing note, design a historical game, digitize a medieval manuscript or write a piece of historical fiction. In the nation’s capital, you can gain work experience through Co-op and practicum placements in a national museum or government agency. The Public History concentration allows you to explore how history appears in our everyday lives — in movies, video games, music and the stories families and communities pass from one generation to the next.
