How to preserve the past for future use
The human story is a tangled narrative of events encompassing thousands of years, each thread of which is connected to countless others. A historian can trace those threads, understand their connections and explain their relevance to the present.
Through academic research, teaching and public history (archival and museum work, historic preservation, etc.), historians help us preserve our heritage and make sense of the modern world by reminding us of all that led up to where we are today. A degree in history from SFA teaches you observational, analytical and critical thinking skills that are necessary to put the pieces of the puzzle together in the right order to better understand the human condition.
Skills that will never collect dust
The skills of a good historian can be valuable far beyond the bounds of the classroom or the museum. Research, analysis and strong writing skills are highly valued in many other professional fields such as:
business management
diplomacy
journalism
law
publishing, and
theology.
Whether you use your training to preserve and transmit history directly or to make you a more productive professional in some other field, the tools you gain from a history education will never get rusty.
Students should take a variety of advanced courses in both U.S. and non-U.S. fields. Consult your academic advisor for specific course selection. At least 12 hours of advanced history must be taken at SFA.
