Meet Michael Sturma Associate Professor of History Programme Chair, History and General Arts "It doesn’t matter what your academic background is or what vocation you aspire to, History is a subject that can engage most people. It’s great being able to interact with people from across campus, some majoring in History but many simply taking electives out of interest."
