Contact the Department

At the College of Mount Saint Vincent, history students learn to assess and understand the present by studying the past. They’re prepared for both professional life and graduate study, and they’re frequently inspired to involve themselves in social issues—through volunteerism, political involvement, civic associations, government work, and other options.
