Exploring New Approaches to Understanding the Historical Experiences of Peoples in the Diaspora.™




About Us & Our Program


What is the Comparative Black History Ph.D. Program?

The Comparative Black History Ph.D. Program at Michigan State University offers students a new approach to understanding the historical experience of peoples of African descent in Africa and throughout the Western hemisphere. The program trains scholars in the intricately connected yet distinct cultures of these disparate societies. In a series of foundation courses students explore the myriad ways that culture, ideology, and racial politics both distinguish and unite the experiences, reactions, and conditions of African peoples in different parts of the New World.



Why did we establish the Comparative Black History Program?

The goal of the Comparative Black History Ph.D. Program is to produce teachers, researchers, and historians who practice public history with a specialization in African, African-American, Caribbean and/or Latin American history. It emphasizes comparative methologies and perspectives in the study of African descended people.
