History examines the complexity of and relationship between past events in order to understand the meaning of human experience over time. Far from being an exercise in remembering facts and dates, historical study is dynamic and forever new. In exploring the lives of diverse peoples in different times and places, historians interpret a wide range of evidence from various perspectives. Through such inquiries, history seeks to make sense of the present and the future as well as the past. Areas of Study in History: African American; East Asian; Ancient, Medieval, Modern, and Contemporary Europe; Environmental; Ethnic/Immigration; Gender/Women’s; Intellectual; Native American; Pacific Northwest; and United States. What can I do with a Bachelor’s Degree in History?
Historians develop transferable skills that can be applied in a variety of workplace settings. From critical thinking, to research, analysis, writing, teaching and public speaking, History majors develop valuable skills that employers seek. Potential employers include: National Archives and Records, Library of Congress, foreign and intelligence services; museums, national and state parks and historic sites; government agencies, elected officials, political campaigns, law firms, public advocacy groups, non-profit organizations, curatorial and archival management, historical societies, libraries, universities and colleges, corporations, journalism: news departments, newspapers, radio and tv stations, publishing companies, education: public and private schools.
