Overview

Whether you're studying the Ottomans, King Arthur, the Holocaust or the U.S. Civil Rights Movement, you're learning to think critically and analytically about how humans have shaped their world.

As a major in the History program of Stetson University, you will learn about the past and about the world. History is a living and changing discipline; even though it is about the past, historians are always thinking of new ways to interpret that past. You will learn to think about the past this way too and to question their own assumptions about historical events and patterns, developing their own conclusions informed by careful reading and discussion.

Program distinction includes a public history concentration, a rich variety of internships, travel courses to England and Rome, engaged teaching inside the classroom and at local historic sites, intensive faculty mentorship on individual research projects, an opportunity to earn honors in the major with extended research and generous research grant opportunities.

You will take courses across all the world's geographic regions, broadening their understanding of global cultures. Courses cover distinct historical eras and themes in North America, Latin America, Europe, Eastern Europe, Russia, and Eurasia, Africa and the Middle East, and East, Southeast and South Asia that range from prehistoric times through the turn of the twenty-first century.
