Beschreibung des Programms

Master of Arts, History – Armstrong, Statesboro

Degree Requirements : 33 Credit Hours

The Department of History offers bachelors of arts and masters of arts degrees in history and a graduate certificate in public history and specializes in Southern history, Georgia history, women’s history, and military history, among other areas. For undergraduates, the Department participates in the University Honors Program, and for graduate students, the Department has several graduate assistantship opportunities.

Our faculty are engaging teachers and nationally and internationally known scholars in various historical fields. You will be in the classroom with award-winning teachers and scholars, taking a range of classes that satisfy just about any historical interest.

Why Study History?

In survey after survey, employers stress the need for people who think critically and write well. Rather than seeking job-specific skills, today’s lean corporations look for flexible problem solvers:

“Employees with liberal arts majors have shown stronger management skills and have advanced further than those with other college majors.” – Bell Systems

“GM values a broad-based education that cultivates creative, analytical, and communication skills and encourages self-motivation, persistence, and self-discipline.” – General Motors , which employs more than 1,000 history majors.

History graduates work as analysts in business in government, as researchers, public relations officers, editors, teachers, sales executives, and managers. History is a preferred pre-law major, and two Georgia Southern history professors are also attorneys who give students expert advice on choosing classes and getting into law school. History majors also go to graduate schools in business, public administration, information science, education, and journalism, in addition to history.

History prepares students for careers in public history, including archival management, museum curatorship, and historic preservation.

More than dates and events, history gives us a broader view of our world . By understanding how people thought and acted across the ages in the different parts of the world, we can better understand the events of today and how we can influence tomorrow.

History majors analyze and interpret information, write and share ideas about why events happened and develop the knowledge and skills that help them to succeed in today’s workplace.

Informationen über das Institut

With more than 27,000 students, approximately 140 different degree programs, and three campuses with a single vision of growing others, Georgia Southern University is already moving and ready for more. The historic brick streets or moss-dripping oak trees may make our picturesque campuses seem pristine, but there’s a lot of roll-up-your-sleeves work going on here. Research is focused on community impact. Teaching is focused on the students. And the students are focused on their future.

Since 1906, the University’s hallmark has been a culture of engagement that bridges theory with practice, extends the learning environment beyond the classroom, and promotes student growth and life success. Central to the University’s mission is the faculty’s dedication to excellence in teaching and the development of a fertile learning environment exemplified by a free exchange of ideas, high academic expectations, and individual responsibility for academic achievement. Faculty, staff, and students embrace core values of collaboration, academic excellence, discovery and innovation, integrity, openness and inclusion, and sustainability.
