Attention K-12 teachers of history and social science!

We all know it’s easy to look up factual information in standard reference sources, but there’s much more to history than “Who did what when?”

The History Department at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee includes faculty with expertise on a wide spectrum of places, periods and subjects. We teach and study topics ranging from the archaeology of ancient China to America in the 1970s; from the history of mathematics to the history of baseball; from Muslim Spain to modern Russia; from medieval fast food to health care in Africa; from the history of Wisconsin to the history of religion.

If you have a question about history, we would be delighted to try to help you with it. Use the e-mail link below and send us a message. We’ll get back to you as soon as we can. E-mail us at history@uwm.edu.
