History

The online Bachelor of Science in History facilitates the personal and professional development of knowledge, skills, and character through the exploration of human activity across time, and does so with the context of a learning community governed by an overarching biblical worldview. Students within the History major will gain a basic understanding of the field of History (e.g., factual knowledge, methods, principles, generalizations, theories) as well as develop specific skills, competencies, and points of view needed by professionals in the fields of historical research, teaching, or pre-professional studies. Learning to analyze and critically evaluate ideas, arguments, and points of view through interaction with primary and secondary sources is also a large part of the History major.
