Overview

The History programme from Chapman University provides students with the knowledge and tools of history, but also provides a sense of roots, as well as a broader perspective on the diverse regions and peoples of the world.

Training in history teaches students how to think, how to analyze different kinds of problems, and is solid training for such careers as teaching, law, business, historic preservation, or archival management.

Research and Extracurricular Opportunities

In addition to an outstanding curriculum, the major in history at Chapman offers students opportunities to work on projects associated with the Rodgers Center for Holocaust Education including the USC Shoah Foundation Visual History Archives and the Center for American War Letters.

Student research funding programs include the Wilkinson College BURN, SURF, and WCAHSS Travel grants, as well as funds from the History Department.

In addition, we offer some very special study abroad experiences in London, Paris and Rome. Internships at the National Archives in Laguna Niguel and the Nixon Library Bowers Museum, and the Paragon Agency (E-Books) are also available.
