About Associate of Arts - History
The Associate in Arts for Transfer in History (AA-T in History) provides students the opportunity to cultivate a broad perspective on history. The program is designed to stimulate appreciation for, and understanding of historical and cultural trends, and knowledge of key figures and events.
The program is also designed to facilitate learning in such a way to allow students to make connections to modern institutions and ideas, patterns of change and progress, and encourage an interest in the 21st century world.
Students will also refine their cognitive and analytical faculties through studying historical works, researching historical subjects, and writing using primary and secondary sources.
Critical thinking skills and historical understanding through these courses provide a framework for lifelong study in the history and the humanities areas and offers students a breadth of knowledge that could be focused into single discipline degrees as well as applied to an interdisciplinary degree.
The AA-T in History is designed to provide a clear pathway to a CSU institution for students who plan to transfer and complete a CSU major or baccalaureate degree in History.
California Community College students who are awarded an AA-T in History are guaranteed admission with junior standing within the CSU system and given priority admission consideration to their local CSU institution or to a program that is deemed similar to their community college major.
