History

Grebel History classroom

The undergraduate course offerings in History at Conrad Grebel University College are an integral part of University of Waterloo's Department of History, and count towards a major or minor in that discipline. Grebel specializes in courses on the history of the Reformation and Radical Reformation, and the Christian church more broadly, Anabaptist-Mennonites, the Western world, immigration, peace movements, and food history. Some of the courses are cross-listed with Religious Studies or Peace and Conflict Studies.
