The Department of History offers comprehensive undergraduate and graduate programs in all fields of history, with particular strengths in American history; the history of science, technology, environment, and medicine; and social history and policy. Historical studies are sometimes categorized among humanistic studies and sometimes among the social sciences. Allied with both traditions, historians seek an understanding of the past by analyzing societies and how they change over time. The Department of History offers instruction within the customary frameworks that have formed the basis of historical studies, and it also has developed special emphases in social, cultural, political, and economic perspectives that allow instruction and research on such topics as the African-American experience, the environment, business and economy, technology and science, medicine, women’s history and gender studies, legal history, and comparative social history. Courses in history, or a formal major or minor in history, traditionally have been attractive to students as preparation for a wide variety of career and professional interests, including teaching, law, government, and journalism, and such public history activities as archival administration, historical museum administration, restoration and preservation of historic sites, and writing. The history major may be elected in one of two formats: the regular major or the teacher licensure major. Teacher Licensure Major The teacher licensure major requires 30 hours of history, including the same four courses required for the regular major and a minimum of six semester hours in each of three focus areas: United States history, world/European studies, and Asian, African, and Latin American studies. Candidates for teacher licensure (Integrated Social Studies, Adolescents and Young Adults) must also take courses in economics, political science, and sociology (9 hours) and 35 hours in education courses, culminating in student teaching. Students interested in pursuing this option should confer with the department’s undergraduate advisor.
