“Chicago State University 历史 program’s curriculum is outstanding with a variety of courses to choose from. Classes include U.S. 历史, Africana 历史 (Haitian and Caribbean), Religion and many more areas. The class sizes are smaller, which allows us more individualized times with the instructor. Also, the class schedules are flexible and able to fit into any schedule. The curriculum places a strong emphasis on reading, writing and research which is a winning recipe for any future Historian. 基社盟的历史 BA program really helped me grow as a historian.” Sherece Spann, B.A. 历史 Alumna and M.A. 历史 Candidate |
“Africana Studies at Chicago State University provided me with an exceptional educational 经验. The faculty challenged me to think critically, question assumptions, foster my intellectual growth. Their mentorship helped me develop a nuanced understanding of global issues through a multidisciplinary lens. Beyond the classroom, the 程序 provided me with opportunities to engage in meaningful experiential learning. 我工作 as a student assistant at the Global Engagement Office, where I shared my firsthand 经验s studying abroad in Africa with fellow students. This 经验 allowed me to apply the knowledge and perspectives I gained in the Africana Studies program to foster intercultural exchange.” 科瑞·莱利,B.A. 历史 and Africana Studies (Africana Studies Option) Class of 2024. |
