Bachelor of Arts - History

The History program not only acquaints students with different ages, societies, and cultures, but it also develops powers of writing, speaking, and thinking. The curriculum is organized to provide them with general knowledge, as well as technical competencies essential in such fields as business, law, government, teaching, publishing, and museum and archival work. Practice and theory are linked through internships in agencies, libraries, archives, museums, preservation organizations, historical societies, governmental agencies, and at historic sites for practical experience.

History is human life recreated from the tracks their ancestors left behind them. In its modern form, the study of history equips students with analytical skills and research techniques of immense practical and vocational value. History majors can choose an optional concentration in secondary education, with certification in history or social studies.
