The Department of History and Civilization focuses primarily on the history of Europe, from the late medieval and early modern period to the present, in a transnational and global context. It takes a broad approach to the study of history that includes social and economic analysis as well as the history of cultural and intellectual transfers.

The Alcide de Gasperi Research Centre (ADG), part of the Department, promotes research into the history of European Integration, supports young researchers in the field, coordinates networks of historians, and facilitates the use of primary sources.
