CEU's Department of History offers students interdisciplinary and comparative perspectives on the history and culture of Central, Southeastern, and Eastern Europe in conjunction with the Ottoman, Middle Eastern, and larger Eastern Mediterranean world. Our curriculum covers this broad Eurasian span from the early modern period to the present, and we also encourage our students to take classes and engage with faculty and peers in other disciplines at the University such as Medieval Studies, Anthropology, Public Policy, Gender Studies, Sociology, Environmental Studies, as well as Legal Studies just to name a few. Our community challenges our students to craft cutting-edge research projects in dialogue with the current debates and research at the forefront of the social sciences and humanities. Please visit our website to learn more about our thriving community in the department as well as the success stories of our recent alumni who have landed coveted positions in competitive tenure-track posts, the world's top PhD programs, as well as high positions in government, NGOs, and the private sector.
