Bachelor of Arts - History

Interpreting and comprehending the past is challenging, but it can help us navigate the rapidly-changing world with greater success. The History program’s goal is to provide a broad understanding of the causes and effects of our past across multiple cultures and peoples, in order to accurately read the present. Students will build fundamental critical-thinking, research, and communication skills while expanding their cultural literacy and coming to understand better the world today. This major is for students who wish to work in museums and archives, state and federal government, law, journalism, teaching, or the business world.
