Historical Studies

About

Historical studies lays the foundation for all social inquiry and for informed debate on the politics and culture of our time. Bridging the humanities with the social sciences, our innovative program trains students in conceptual rigor, archival research, critical analysis, and historical writing. Our strong links to other New School for Social Research departments and to centers and programs across The New School provide our students with unparalleled opportunities for engagement with critical social theory and in interdisciplinary collaboration.

Historical Studies is an interdisciplinary program that brings historians and social scientists together to develop critical approaches to historical questions. Students who complete the master's degree can apply for admission as PhD dual-program students, pairing historical study with doctoral work in programs such as politics, sociology, and anthropology.
