The Department of History and Political Science (HPS) is committed to providing you with opportunities for intellectual growth, career skill development, faculty mentorship, and community building.
We want to see you succeed.
"I truly believe that I would not have accomplished all that I have this past year without the support and help of the HPS department and professors. They pushed me to do more, be more involved, and work harder than I ever have before. I look forward to my future because I believe in myself and what I can accomplish."
- History major Emily Stolp '25
