History explores the human past in all its complexity: societies, economies, political systems, religions, ideologies, the arts… It draws on the social sciences for the questions and methods that enable us to identify correlations, trace origins, and, in short, understand the human experience. History also looks to the future! To prepare for the future, you act today based on your knowledge of the past!
