| Description | The Department of History shares in the primary mission of the college's academic wing, to provide university-level education to officer cadets as one of the essential elements of their professional development. To this end, the programme in history is designed to meet the specific needs of two types of students; those who major in history and those taking degrees in other departments who have an interest in the discipline.
The Department of History has four primary teaching goals: to teach the essential elements of historical analysis so that students acquire the historical background required to understand the fundamental issues of our time; to provide survey and specialist courses that cover Canadian history, military history and strategic thought, Canadian military history, the history of international relations, and the history of the United States, and Europe, as well as several other courses on more specialized themes and topics; to explain the different historiographic schools of thought and apply the different methods; and to develop students’ intellectual rigour so that they can present their thoughts in the form of sound arguments, both orally and in writing.
