Affiliate Faculty
We encourage students to add an interdisciplinary dimension to their studies in history. Affiliate faculty teach historically informed courses in other departments of the university which may, with departmental approval, be substituted for some degree requirements. These faculty are also available to serve as second readers on graduate committees.
