Academic Programs
An historian’s work requires the mastery of a number of skills—chiefly patience, attention to detail, thinking analytically and communicating clearly—that are highly beneficial across a range of career paths. History majors go on to become educators, researchers, lawyers, television and film writers, business people and government officials. History opens a door and you decide what career lies on the other side.
