Historians are part sleuth and part research scientist, sharing a curiosity about where we've come from and history's potential to influence where we are going. A blend of the humanities and social sciences, this field both asks and answers questions about human experiences and how people, events and societies of the past inform the present.
As a history major at USD, you will develop reading, writing, research and critical thinking skills as you explore past and contemporary human experiences. Your studies may involve a trip to the Aegean Sea to explore ancient and modern Greece via sailboat, or you may delve deep into USD’s unique archives and the largest oral history collection in the region to learn about the past through primary sources such as recorded interviews and newspapers.
Through enriching experiences in and beyond the classroom, you will learn how to use evidence to interpret information, tell stories and make persuasive arguments. This high-quality liberal arts education prepares you for a range of careers, including those in law, education, museums, journalism, marketing, cultural agencies and more.
