Department of History
Welcome to the History Department!
The Department of History, through its dual functions of research and teaching, seeks to broaden and deepen our understanding of the past and prepare students to engage with the increasingly complex, globalizing present. Upon earning a BA or BS in History, students will be able to apply critical thinking skills to, and communicate verbally and in written format about, contemporary events. Our undergraduate students also develop the skills necessary for quality research, the assessment of conflicting evidence, and the practice of effective writing, argumentation, and advocacy. As a result, they will become more informed global citizens and more proficient in the abilities that most employers continue to value above all others. The faculty teach over one hundred undergraduate courses on peoples, ideas, and cultures from around the world and across the ages and are devoted to developing students’ ability to understand how studying history can help solve some of today’s most pressing problems. The department also offers several study-abroad programs to further enhance students’ familiarity with the world’s diverse cultures and increase their foreign language competency.
The Department of History at Texas A&M offers the BA, BS, MA, and PhD. A major in history affords students both a broad education and valuable practical skills. By acquiring familiarity with people in diverse times, places, and circumstances, students of history develop a sophisticated human empathy which is the key to good scholarship and good citizenship alike. Teaching is one important career path for history majors. But many students utilize a major in history as preparation for a career in government agencies, law and law enforcement, the military, intelligence analysis, foreign service, technology, business, public relations, non-profit work, parks and recreation, archival and library resources, museums, advertising, and religious leadership. History stands as the departure point for an array of jobs in any number of different fields.
