Webster University

Offered at the following locations:

• St. Louis Home Campus
  in Webster Groves, Missouri
• London, United Kingdom Campus

Whatever draws you to history, be it the U.S. Civil War, Malcolm X, ancient Greece, or something far more obscure, Webster history professors will deepen your knowledge and expand your horizons.

Small class sizes and engaging discussion are a hallmark of our classes. Visiting speakers and panel discussions of current issues put your studies in contemporary context.

You'll find peers who want to teach history or just learn more before embarking on careers in law, museum research, journalism, and much more. Faculty are friendly, always looking for a good discussion, and looking out for your interests. Their first priority is your success.

Popular opportunities for Webster's History students include study abroad at our European campuses, designing exhibits at the World War I Museum in downtown St. Louis, and living history sojourns to Williamsburg, Virginia.

With many classes held in the historic H. Sam Priest Center, you will find a shared sense of scholarship and community with your peers majoring in History, Political Science, or International Relations.
