The Master's degree program offered by Indiana State University's Department of History is designed to fulfill a variety of academic and professional objectives. The program facilitates preparation for entry into doctoral programs in history and for teaching at the university, community college, and secondary levels. Graduate work in history also provides an excellent background for careers in law, business, government service, and writing, and for specialized work as a museum curator, librarian, archivist, editor, historic site specialist, and research historian. Normally broad in its academic scope, the Master's degree program in history is also sufficiently flexible to meet the needs of individual students. The program can be completed either on campus or online. Both options require 33 credit hours which can be completed in two years of full-time study or in about three to five years of part-time study. Typical courses include intensive reading, research, and writing assignments combined with discussion boards and/or synchronous online meetings. The online Master's degree is designed to meet the needs of educators and working students.
