If you love history, you're in luck! Majoring is good preparation for almost any career --- especially if you plan carefully, something your History adviser can help you do.
Like other liberal arts disciplines, history sharpens your ability to think critically, argue logically, conduct research,
analyze data, and communicate clearly, both orally and in writing. History is also unique. Beacuse it is both a humanities
and a social science, it addresses the study of individuals and the broader society, teaching you to shift your focus back and forth between the two, evaluating issues in context-invaluable
skills for any career.
History majors excel in careers as:
Lawyers Bankers
Teachers/Professors Political Staffers/Lobbyists
Librarians/Archivists Public Relations Representatives
Documentary Filmmakers Journalists
Museum Curators . . . and the list goes on and on . . .
