Anyone who studies history may have imagined actually making history at one time or another. Field surveys are the History Department’s main activity that allows students to realize this dream, giving students the opportunity to have a memorable learning experience at historical sites. Students can thus gain a palpable sense of history and a deeper understanding by visiting historical sites which, otherwise, they would have learned about only from printed materials such as literature and historical records.

  The field survey team organizes three-day and one-day regular survey activities every spring and fall on an annual basis. The team holds regular seminars during the semester, allowing the members to study historical remains and cultural assets in detail while they develop detailed exploration plans and undertake preliminary expeditions during the vacation. In the process, team members develop a strong sense of unity and fellowship while strengthening their leadership skills.
