Bachelor of Arts, Major in History
Program Overview
The history major provides students with the mental discipline needed for them to assume lives of positive impact in any specific vocational field. In pursuit of this goal, the program cultivates a historical perspective, which is integrative of all fields of human knowledge; analyzes the choices, and consequences of those choices, of various human communities; appreciates the development of wisdom and beauty; develops advanced critical thinking and communication skills through intensive examination of the elements of history (among them texts, images, objects, landscapes) and the crafting of contemporary historical arguments based upon those sources; examines the creation of history through the work of historians; and encourages civic engagement through a deeper and more nuanced understanding of the development of human societies and the importance of competent, creative, and generous leadership in forging peaceful societies.
In addition to the prescribed coursework, students are strongly encouraged to participate in internships and study abroad programs as a way of broadening their intellectual and cultural development and preparing them for success in a wide range of fields.
