How have the histories of the universe, Earth, life and human societies jointly shaped the world around you? The big history course will help you address this question.
The course will take you on a journey from the Big Bang until today and will allow you to explore how various cosmological, geological, biological and cultural processes have affected an aspect of the city of Amsterdam that interests you.
The results of that exploration will be bundled in the form of a discovery tour through part of the city centre, which will be published as part of the celebration of the city’s 750th ‘birthday’.
