Overview

History is, at its most basic level, about storytelling. Historians write narratives that explore the past, and are relevant to the present. Everything has a history, but the way this history is told is often highly contested. In the history program, students will develop a body of knowledge about the past, but more importantly they will learn how to critically examine the past through writing and in-class discussion. The ability to tell a compelling story, that is both backed by evidence and that makes a serious point, is of utmost importance no matter what career one ends up in. History majors go on to a wide range of careers. Students can work in the field of history, as academic or public historians. History majors often go on to graduate study in law school, library school, or history. Education is also a common field for history graduates. Employers value the critical thinking and original insights that humanities majors provide so it is no surprise that many history majors end up in the business world. More broadly, history majors learn to master research, analysis, writing, and communication skills, which are essential for many professions. For students who don’t go on to a career in history, employers value the critical thinking and original insights that an education in history provides.

Optional Practical Training (OPT)

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
