Department of 历史 和 Government

圣经为基础. 治学严谨的. 思想保守的.

If these are attributes you are looking for in an academic program, Cedarville's Department of 历史 和 Government, 在 School of Arts 和 Humanities是给你的! We are shaping “change agents” — graduates who love the Lord with their minds, integrate their faith with their personal 和 professional lives, demonstrate excellence 在ir fields to glorify God, serve with the humility of the Savior, 和 ultimately influence their culture for the cause of Christ.

Our approach to history 和 government is unique. We begin with a biblical, Christ-centered foundation. Rather than touting autonomous self-determination (a commonly held belief in our disciplines), we affirm God as the ultimate authority. Principles from God’s Word guide discussions about history, 公共服务, 社会, 以及全球经济. Department faculty will challenge you with high st和ards 和 rigorous curriculum so that you are prepared for what God has called you to do.  Cedarville’s niche has long been conservative evangelicalism 和 the Department is committed to equipping students for practical involvement in a culture that is often hostile to those who live their lives based on the principles of God’s Word. 

The faculty of our department are dedicated to remaining current 在ir fields 和 participating 在ir professional academic arenas. Modeling the process of “engagement,” department faculty read prominent journals, 参加会议, 现在的论文, 和 publish scholarly articles 和 books. They are committed to the principle that to be effective 老师s 在ir fields, they must be actively engaged either through scholarship or professional involvement. Many of the faculty have had extensive experience 在 field in which they teach.  The end result is greater effectiveness 在 classroom, timely 和 up-to-date presentations, 和 a challenging academic atmosphere. Faculty 在 department will broaden your thinking 和 stretch your horizons. They will care about you as a person 和 encourage you to grow in your relationship with Christ.

Our department offers a number of excellent major programs including Criminal Justice, 法医科学, 历史, 国际研究, 政治科学, 法律预科的, 和 Social Studies Education. Each of these programs provides the balanced education prized by employers 和 graduate schools: a strong core of required courses, electives that allow you to specialize 和 explore further, 和 a capstone project that brings together all elements of your academic experience. If God has given you a desire to serve Him as an archivist, 外交官, 政府官员, 律师, 历史学家, 执法人员, 图书管理员, 政治家, 公共管理者, 公共历史学家, 老师, 或社会学家, seriously consider Cedarville University! We will prepare you to be a “change agent” for Jesus Christ.
