Bachelor of Arts - Museums, Archives and Public History

Nazareth University offers one of the few undergraduate majors in public history in the country. The program is distinct for combining rich historical study with experiential learning obtained through the required 12 credit hours of internship. Students take classes and undertake internships that allow them to pursue advanced degrees or careers in archives, digital humanities, documentation projects, film studies, government service, heritage tourism, historical house management, library science, museums,  national park service, and preservation.

This program’s experiences and rich content in American history makes it ideal to pair with a dual major such as American studies, anthropology, art history, communications and media, history, marketing, music, public health, social science, theatre arts, and women and gender studies.
