Overview

Historians gather evidence, analyze it, and then draw conclusions. They present those conclusions convincingly both in writing and speaking - important skills in many fields outside of the historical profession. A Minor in History is an excellent complement for many different major degree programs, including Geography, Criminal Justice, Political Science, Sociology, Marketing, Business, English, and Modern Languages.
