University of New England

Students in the Department of History enjoy the close relationships they form with history faculty, the flexible program of study, small classes and the beauty of the coastal Maine campus.

Below are some links to profiles of some of our students, who share their experiences as students in the Department of History:

Claire Varner '10: Small class sizes make discussions more comfortable and getting to know one another easy.  Professors know students on an individual basis and want their students to do well.  They are willing to put in the extra time if you are struggling in class or need help with a paper." Profile

Mandy Wertman '09:  "There is always something going on at UNE. Clubs, dances, movies, lectures; UNE knows how to keep students busy. You meet so many people not only in the first few months, but all year round. Just go to one event and you will see what I mean." Profile

Caitlin Barry '08: "What I like about the History Department is how involved the professors are; I got to know all of them within the first couple of months. They are extremely interested in your success not only at UNE, but also in what you do when you leave here." Profile

Marisela LaPlante ’06:  "I like that UNE offers students a small campus feel with all the amenities of a big campus. I also like that UNE offers honored speakers on an on-going basis. The availability of the professors and staff is another reason I enjoy UNE. The professors are always willing to give extra help and work with you at anytime." Profile.
