Explore and analyze developments in the period’s arts and letters, technology, trade, science, and religion in Europe, the Mediterranean, the Americas, India, and elsewhere.
A thorough, interdisciplinary examination of the medieval, renaissance, and early modern periods enables students to discover local and regional connections across the cultures in the discipline.
Through a deep engagement with the department’s courses and programming, students develop an appreciation for and understanding of how the distant past shapes and informs who we are today.
Students will study with faculty from a wide array of disciplines, such as English, art, history, romance languages, religion, music, classics, Middle Eastern studies, political science, and astronomy and physics.
