History

The study of history promotes a better understanding of how societies work, the factors that bring them together and set them apart, and the events that shape their values and identity. It also helps to explain how different political and legal systems came into being and how economic and geographical conditions affect the way in which countries evolve. You can choose from a wide variety of courses in Canadian, American, European and world history.
