History Department offers one of the most popular undergraduate majors
at Rice University-and also one of the most challenging. Our faculty
offers outstanding geographical coverage of Asia and the Middle East,
Latin America and the Caribbean, and Africa, in addition to Europe, the
United States, and the Atlantic World. At least six of our faculty
research primarily in periods before 1700, ranging from the Byzantine
Empire to southern Africa to South Asia. Eight of our faculty have won
prestigious prizes from Rice University or national organizations for
their outstanding teaching and mentoring; every single one of our
faculty score highly on Rice's student evaluations.</font>

selected to write an honors thesis, as well as a wide range of other
undergraduates, have access to generous funding for research around the
country and even internationally. We seek to support international
travel for our students wherever possible; recent destinations of our
students include China, Brazil, France, the Netherlands, and Zambia.
Each year, the department celebrates with its majors and award winners
at our Senior Champagne Toast. Our majors go on to wide range of
careers. Medicine, law, the study of history at the graduate level, and
secondary school teaching are strongly represented; they have also made
careers in print and television journalism, consulting, and small
business, among many other fields.</font>

is the proud home of very active research centers that support graduate
students, sponsor conferences, and interact continuously with academic
and non-academic communities in Philadelphia and around the world. Our
Center for Public History trains students for work beyond the
university-from museums and archives to the halls of government-and to
be particularly mindful of community, collaborative practice, and the
fraught politics of shared memory. The Center supports research and
socially engaged projects with community partners, winning external
grants, national attention, and awards. The MA program with
concentration in public history enjoys a remarkable 100% placement rate
for graduates who find careers in national and regional cultural
organizations.</font>
