What Can I Do With a History Degree? 

After graduation, many History graduates pursue more specialized study in law, business administration and international relations. Others prepare for teaching careers by doing graduate work in history or education. Others move directly to jobs in government, the media and private industry, where their skills in analysis, evaluation, research and communication are highly valued.

What's New

Visit Student Planning for a list of the courses offered by the History department in Fall 2024. Students wishing to register for a closed (full) course must visit the Academic Advising Website and submit a course override request form (the link will be on the page under Fall 2024 Course Override Requests) requesting an override. Please do not submit your request directly to the course instructor or to the Department Chair. All course overrides are reviewed by the department chair and are only approved if there are extenuating circumstances. The override request will not be processed if there is a time conflict with your existing schedule, you do not have 6th course permission from your advisor, or if there is a financial hold on your account.
