Overview

At the History degree from University of Mary Hardin Baylor learn to make the past accessible by preserving the collective memory of varied places and times and to use information, evidence, and argumentation to identify and explain continuity and change.

History students learn how to think critically, how to communicate through writing and speaking, and how to argue from multiple viewpoints about a given event, development, or historical legacy.

Through the study of history, students not only expand their historical knowledge but also come to understand the complexities of human nature and life.
