在这里学什么？

The history major with a world history emphasis is the most comprehensive of the history majors, with requirements that diversify the degree to cover as much of the world as can be done in a 40-credit undergraduate degree. Like all majors, this one requires the completion of two courses unique to history students (HIS 200 and HIS 490), and then three courses from the 200-level surveys of regional history.

Along with that foundation, the world history major requires the completion of the following: one course from a list which covers the history of women, gender and sexuality; two courses on U.S. history; one course on global/trans regional history; one course each on Asia, Latin America, Europe, and Africa/Middle East; and one course on ancient, classical, or religious history.

The mission of the UWL History Department is to provide leadership in history education and scholarship. We provide our students with a solid foundation in the critical thinking and analytical skills necessary for interpreting documents and historical research. We develop historical understanding and global perspective through courses in the university’s general education program and a balanced world history curriculum, strengthened by faculty specialties in a wide range of time periods, cultures, geographical areas, and thematic approaches. Our public history program develops analytical and interpretive skills through a curriculum focusing on material culture studies, oral history, cultural resource management, and community studies. Our programs prepare students for opportunities in fields such as teacher education, editing, archives and museum studies, as well as for careers in law and government. Finally, we serve the community by sharing our expertise when issues of historical importance engage the public’s interest.

Career Opportunities

By achieving an undergraduate degree in history, students acquire a set of skills that serve a broad set of professional careers. Graduates have analytical and interpretive skills gained from intensive study of both secondary and primary source materials. Our graduates are information managers, who can compile, organize, and use large sets of data, volumes of text, and visual, oral, and material culture. History graduates possess effective oral and written communication skills. These are skills, gained and set in a wide range of historical contexts that form a solid foundation for multiple careers. Our program prepares students for careers such as advertising executive, analyst, archivist, broadcaster, businessperson, campaign worker, congressional aide, consultant, documentary filmmaker, editor, foreign service officer, foundation staffer, historic preservationist, history professor, information specialist, intelligence agent, journalist, K-12 educator, landscape architecture planner, lawyer, legislative staffer, librarian, lobbyist, museum professional, paralegal, park ranger, personnel manager, policymaker, politician, public relations staffer, urban planner, writer and a wide array of positions in arts and humanities and service organizations. With additional graduate-level education history majors may prepare to teach at the community college or university level, a career in law, and more specialized fields in public and policy history.
