As a student in the program you will learn how to think critically about historical topics and narratives, to analyze primary source material from the past, to conceptualize and organize independent research projects, and to write clearly and persuasively.
Graduates of the program use these skills in the classroom as teachers and professors; at historical sites as park rangers and museum educators; and in historical societies, publishing houses, and many other areas.
Our exceptional faculty members offer specialized courses in areas related to their research interests. They also mentor students one-on-one, sharing their professional expertise and helping students hone their abilities.
Students in the M.A. program choose one of two concentrations: thesis or non-thesis. There is also a Public History Certificate, which can be incorporated into either concentration or completed as a stand-alone credential.
