History Minor (M)
Our History Department will help you develop an understanding of major events and historical themes over time and around the globe while acquiring the necessary skills to read, write, speak, and teach about history. You’ll go beyond the “facts” to reveal the multitude of interpretations offered to help us understand our past and its influence on the ideas and values of the present.
The History program is designed to help students develop a knowledge of major events and themes in United States, European, and Global history; an understanding of the methods and debates in the historical field; and the research and communication skills needed to participate in intellectual life from a historical perspective.
