Bachelor of Arts in History

Roosevelt University - Chicago

If you want to question assumptions and hone your communication skills, history could be the major for you. A history degree prepares you for rewarding careers in education, law, nonprofits, public policy and more. From our inspirational founding story to our historic building, Roosevelt University is the ideal place to immerse yourself in history. In the middle of a city known for its diversity and rich culture, you’ll experience history inside and outside the classroom. Find your voice as a historian with engaged classmates, small class sizes and interactive learning. Public history and travel abroad courses will transport you outside of the classroom. Engage with the community and hear from the voices in history that have too often been submerged. You’ll learn how to construct histories through inquiry, research and interpretation. Talented faculty are here to mentor you and prepare you for fulfilling careers.
