Our faculty were educated at universities throughout the United States and abroad. Collectively, UCA history faculty have won several national as well as UCA-sponsored teaching and research awards and fellowships. Many of them employ the Reacting to the Past role-playing immersion curriculum, which enables students to experience history as a historical figure. The department offers a rich and diverse course offerings, and the faculty collectively dedicates its time beyond the classroom to help with departmental and honors theses, internships, conference presentations, service-learning, and social events.
