McMaster launches concurrent certificate in History and Education Studies to link learning with education careers
McMaster introduces a Concurrent Certificate in History and Education Studies open to undergraduates. The 15‑unit credential draws from more than 27 course options (including INSPIRE 2ED3 and HISTORY 3HT3) and features a practicum delivered through the Office of Community Engagement.
Announced 6 Nov 2026, the Concurrent Certificate lets McMaster undergraduates pair their degree with a 15‑unit program focused on teaching, learning theory and community engagement. Students choose from over 27 courses, begin with gateway classes such as INSPIRE 2ED3 and HISTORY 3HT3, and complete a practicum arranged by the Office of Community Engagement to gain hands‑on experience in schools and community settings. The certificate targets careers in teaching, museums, public history and other learning‑centred roles.
