A major in history challenges you to engage many kinds of sources to gain greater understanding of the past. By interpreting incomplete and often contradictory sources, you learn to think critically, make connections across time and place, and understand change.
The expansive history curriculum covers a broad array of periods and developments in the Western and non-Western world, from the 14th century Age of Discovery to the evolution of the relationship between the U.S. and the Middle East.
By studying history, you build a firm foundation for graduate study and a career while gaining insight into the diversity of the human experience and into your own place (and role) in the world.
