What do we teach?

The curriculum for our undergraduate students covers all periods in the history of Poland and the world; the students can also choose courses in other humanistic disciplines and social sciences.

In addition, they can, but do not have to, acquire professional qualifications in one or more of the following fields: teaching, editing, archiving, promotion.
