Overview

As the oldest college in Kansas, Baker University boasts its own fascinating past, making it the perfect place to be a History major.

Overview

In addition to the study of European, non-Western, and American history, you can expect to analyze and interpret the legacy and contributions of traditionally underrepresented cultures and societies.

Through directed research, oral history analysis, cultural studies, museum and archival fieldwork, and internships, you’ll engage with history from multiple perspectives.

Whether it’s reenacting famous battles on campus to understand military strategies; re-creating segregated public facilities to understand the consequences of segregation; or studying abroad to learn and become familiar with other languages, cultures, and history, our students have a multitude of experiential learning opportunities to choose from. Many of our history majors go on to earn graduate degrees, either from law school or more in-depth historical programs.
