Program Overview

The history major teaches students research, analytical, writing, and presentation skills that can be applied to any career. Programs in the History Department offer the student understanding in the scholarly discipline of history through the expansion of historical knowledge, the comprehension of historiography, and the practice of critical inquiry. Framing the questions that define particular scholarly debates underlies critical analysis of primary and secondary sources. Students gain exposure to these questions in course work and demonstrate their familiarity with them in discussions, written work, and presentations. Through the department's skills-based curriculum, history majors learn how to think and write like historians. History faculty teach students to think contextually, analyze historical documents, and become better researchers and writers. The Department offers majors and minors in history with options for emphasis in United States, Latin American, European, Eastern European, African and Asian History.

Global History

Political pundits, journalists and scholars frequently assert that “We live in an increasingly global society.” But what does it mean to live in a “global” society? And have the lives that we live actually become increasingly global over time? The global history specialization of the history B.A. offers students the historical tools to critically analyze past events and lives around the globe and to comprehend different viewpoints for understanding the connections among different parts and peoples of the world.
