B.A. History

Course Overview

The 120 credit hour Bachelor of Arts degree in History emphasizes acquiring a breadth of historical knowledge and the research skills of historical scholarship encompassing the fields of American and World history. The history curriculum incorporates multiple perspectives and methodological approaches to human history, thus capturing the experiences of the rich and poor, the powerful and oppressed.

A major in history prepares students for a variety of opportunities. Traditional professions for historians have been teaching in secondary schools, but other possibilities exist in the public record (i.e., historic preservation, archival work, and museum administration.) Studying history has also been seen as an appropriate preparation for graduate study in law and information management/library studies.
