Bachelor of Arts In History

Through the study of history, you'll learn about past worlds and the forces that made ours. You'll travel to other times and places through reading and discussion, researching and designing your own projects, as well as studying abroad. Far more than job training, studying history is the beginning of a global education that deepens throughout your life. It gives you greater personal insight and knowledge about your place in the world.

The study of history is more than a window into the past. A good history education will help you understand the present and how you, as an individual and global citizen, can improve the future.

In UWL's history program, you'll discover how societies originated and explore cultural, political, social, and economic perspectives across time and space. You'll see how past experiences inform who you are and recognize your role in historical change.
