Why History?

As a history major, you will receive rigorous training in the history of past events and societies. You will study the causes, contexts, and chronologies of individual events, explore how they are connected to larger historical developments, and discover continuity and change throughout time. As you complete your degree, you will gain greater sensitivity to human and cultural diversity in the past. You will also achieve a firmer understanding of  contemporary issues and ideas as you begin to see current events in their historical perspective. As you study the past itself, you will gain an appreciation for how historians develop their interpretations about past events and societies, how and why these historical interpretations differ, and how they change over time. As a history major, finally, you will develop and refine your skills in reading, written and oral communication, research, and critical thinking and analysis.

The history BA degree is structured around an intentionally flexible curriculum. Whether you are a traditional student or a transfer student, our curriculum allows you to complete your degree requirements expeditiously, while choosing the elective coursework that best aligns with your own historical interests and professional goals.
