BA History

Studying history prepares you to think clearly, to interpret evidence and to confront complex issues in informed ways. Our program gives you the opportunity to study state power, ethnic and religious conflict, sexual oppression, racial hierarchies, and wealth and war in the fields of American, European, Asian, African, Latin American, and Middle Eastern history. We provide students with an excellent preparation for law school, graduate work, teaching, and a variety of private and public service positions. The history major is linked to graduate programs within Pace, such as the Pre-Law curriculum, the Master of Public Administration, and the Master of Science in Teaching.
