Ba history in Boston college

Why study history Simply put, studying history is important in order to fully understand the complexities of this modern globalized world. Going far beyond the simple memorization of dates and events, students develop critical thinking skills, learn to write persuasively, and increase their cultural awareness. All of these skills are valued in any profession so while students may decide to continue on to study history at a graduate level, our majors also enter other professional fields such as law, business, government and foreign service, journalism, and teaching.

As History majors, students are introduced to important areas of historical research and schools of thought. Following a curriculum that encompasses European, American, premodern, and nonWestern history, students learn to apply the tools and concepts of historical inquiry and to communicate the results of their research clearly and effectively. This major is ideal for students who are eager to deepen their understanding of the present through an immersion in the events and cultures of the past.
