Bachelor of Arts [B.A] History
- During the course of the Bachelor program in History students build an understanding of history and culture from ancient to modern times with breadth and depth of knowledge of geographic regions around the world, time periods, and thematic understanding of social, political, and economic changes in human society.
- Historians pursue careers as teachers in schools, museums, and historic sites; researchers for historical organizations, resource management, think tanks, and preservation; communication journalists, editors, and multimedia producers; information managers such as archivists and librarians; advocates in law, litigation, and legislative support; and contractors for corporations and nonprofit organizations. Advanced degrees in history, law, and public policy are also a consideration.
- Students who decide to major in history embark upon a course of study that promises both academic and professional rewards. A sound component of a liberal education, history also serves practical needs, providing a solid background for careers in law, journalism, government service, and history preservation. The history major also meets an important need of the business world by providing general training in analysis and writing. For those who choose to teach history or social studies in secondary schools, the history major provides the necessary subject matter. Finally, the history major prepares the student not only for graduate work in history, but also for other professional careers which call for a satisfactory acquisition of knowledge and skills related to the study of the past.
