From Ancient Greece to the American Civil Rights Movement, the History program provides you with much more than a degree. The transferable skills of performing research, assessing conflicting interpretations and evidence, and writing effectively and persuasively are a few of the assets you will build. Your broadened awareness of the world and its patterns and trends through time will help you navigate the contemporary world. History is as much about today and tomorrow as it is about yesterday.
