PS Research Statement The admissions committee seeks prospective students who are prepared to engage in a rigorous course of study undertaken in collaboration with a wide range of teachers and colleagues. In order for the committee to get to know you as a potential member of our community, we ask that you provide a snapshot of your intellectual and personal interests through a research statement. Please use the questions below to craft your research statement, which you should upload under Statements #1. You do not have to answer every question but do choose the ones that will give us the best sense of you as an historian. Please do not exceed 1,000 words. How would you like to grow as an historian and intellectual during your time in graduate school? How has your understanding of history changed in the course of your studies thus far? What problems of understanding or interpretation are you most interested in engaging during your time in graduate school? What was the most interesting and formative class you took as an undergraduate outside the history department, and how did it shape how you look at the past and at historical writing? Many people become aware sometime during their youth of the power of the past. How is history different from the past? What is the most difficult dimension of studying and practicing history? What are examples of difficult historical problems? Why should we pay attention to them? Fee International: $95.00 RL Letters of Recommendation Please submit three letters of recommendation with your application to the history graduate program. We prefer letters from academic references over letters from nonacademic employers. Requests for recommendations can be submitted through the recommendation system on your online graduate school application. Please encourage your recommenders to submit online whenever possible, via the link generated by the online application. If recommenders prefer not to submit online, they may send a letter directly to: The Department of History University of Minnesota 271 19th Ave. S., Ste 1110 Minneapolis, MN 55455 The letter must be accompanied by a signed Recommendation Form (available under Downloadable Forms through the Graduate School online recommendation system). Both the letter and the form should be placed in an envelope signed across the seal by the recommender. Transcript Your unofficial transcript from each college or university that you have attended is required.
