Career Opportunities

A degree in history is a portal to pursue work in many directions. As with any liberal arts major, history prepares students for careers requiring good writing, organizational and analytic skills–essential to any career whether in the private, public or non-profit sector. Opportunities in the field include archival, museum or preservation careers, but further directions in law, education or business are also enhanced by a liberal arts degree with a major in history. Some fields require graduate degrees, but for many business positions, a solid base in the skills of a historian–particularly analysis and writing–is the ticket to entering almost any field imagined.
