Applied History Minor
Coming soon to a history classroom near you! Beginning in fall 2022, the Applied History Minor will introduce students to the skills required for a variety of professions related to the practice of history. With an Applied History Minor, students can also fulfill the "L" area of the REAL program.
This minor will be 15 credit hours and will help prepare students for work in museums, archives, historical sites, public agencies, and business. Students will gain a grounding in history through public history and digital archives programs and, then, through electives from a variety of disciplines can customize the skillset that they wish to develop.
Students who want to pursue Digital History will gain stepping stones to do so through the Applied History Minor. Digital History is a growing field that taps rapid advances in computing, software, and telecommunications to develop fresh perspectives on the past. GIS, 3-D imaging, data analysis, document capture technologies, and online communications open a gateway to vocations in web design, analytics, and GIS visualization.
