历史文学学士

简而言之，研究历史对于充分理解这个现代全球化世界的复杂性很重要。学生不仅可以简单地记住日期和事件，还可以培养批判性思维能力，学会说服力并提高他们的文化意识。所有这些技能在任何专业中都很有价值，因此，尽管学生可以决定继续学习研究生水平的历史，但我们的专业也进入其他专业领域，例如法律，商业，政府和外交服务，新闻和教学。在卑诗省，我们杰出的教职员工是学术界的积极参与者，他们通过教学和指导分享对创新研究的热情。波士顿地区丰富的历史资源意味着我们的学生不仅可以从与教师的紧密合作中受益，而且还可以访问世界一流的图书馆
Simply put, studying history is important in order to fully understand the complexities of this modern globalized world. Going far beyond the simple memorization of dates and events, students develop critical thinking skills, learn to write persuasively, and increase their cultural awareness. All of these skills are valued in any profession so while students may decide to continue on to study history at a graduate level, our majors also enter other professional fields such as law, business, government and foreign service, journalism, and teaching. At BC, our distinguished faculty members are active participants in the scholarly community, and they share their passion for innovative research through teaching and mentorship. The wealth of historical resources in the Boston area means that our students not only benefit from working closely with the faculty, but also from having access to world-class libraries, cultural institutions, and some of the oldest historical sites in the United States.<br><br>There is no formal requirement to select a field of concentration but we encourage you to give some thought to the kinds of big questions you care about. That way, you can explore those questions as you pick your courses, which will bring coherence to your trajectory through the major.<br><br>Traditional ways of looking at history courses include time periods (eg, medieval, early modern), methods (eg, social, intellectual) or regions (eg, African, Latin American). In addition to thinking of your course selections in this way we also encourage you to select courses with a sense of the themes and concepts that interest you.
