The
Center for Medieval Studies at Penn State promotes research and study in
the European Middle Ages across different departments and colleges through
conferences, symposia, colloquia, and publications. Allied to scholarship
is our quest to enhance public appreciation of medieval studies through
a variety of outreach programs. The Center is similarly committed to promoting
the place of medieval studies on the curriculum at both the graduate and
undergraduate levels. It strives, in all these activities, for both excellence
and distinction as the premier intercollegiate program of its kind in the
United States.
