This program is primarily for those who intent on pursuing Ph.D. work. This degree has both a language and thesis requirement and is considered training for individuals seriously considering the Ph.D. and a career in research, publication, and collegiate teaching. The field of US history begins with scholars working on the country's colonial era, and stretches to the very recent past with other scholars examining post-World War II ideas of masculinity and manliness. In short, it covers the depth and breadth of US history. Located in the heart of the Mountain West, many of the students pursue research centered on relationships pertinent to this region, for instance, members of the Mormon community and their interaction with local Native American tribes.
