历史/社会研究文学士

历史/社会研究的重点是查找和访问范围广泛的资源来分析历史证据，包括用于评估历史解释并发展和支持自己的解释的文本和视觉资源。历史课程所需的写作和讨论量也有助于学生发展有效的沟通技巧。经济学，地理学和政治学的必修课程旨在帮助学生准备在中学和高中教授这些课程。
The History/Social Studies major is designed to prepare students to teach history and social studies in secondary schools. In their history courses, History/Social Studies majors learn how to locate and access a wide range of sources, to analyze historical evidence, including textual and visual sources, to evaluate historical interpretations, and to develop and support their own interpretations. The quantity of writing and discussion required in history courses also helps students to develop effective communication skills. The required courses in economics, geography, and political science are intended to prepare students to teach these subjects in middle and high schools.
