Bachelor of Arts History

History is about change and continuity over time and space. Historians gain an understanding of complex cause-and-effect relationships by gathering, organizing and evaluating historical sources from a variety of academic perspectives. During the course of your studies, you'll gain research capabilities, logical and abstract reasoning skills, and the capacity to think in historical terms. As a history graduate, you'll be prepared for career opportunities in areas such as the non-profit sector, the private sector and the business world. A degree in history can also be used as a stepping-stone to graduate studies or another professional degree such as law, medicine, veterinary medicine, or education.
