Master of Arts [M.A] [History] From West Chester University

To quote a recent Los Angeles Times op-ed, "History isn't a 'useless' major. It teaches critical thinking, something American needs much more of." We teach marketable and transferable skills you will take well beyond the history classroom:

• the skill of investigation
• the art of asking good questions that help define the problem at hand
• research skills in identifying and understanding sources
• analysis and interpreting of complex subjects
• effective use of evidence to draw conclusions
• the ability to think critically and creatively about the world in order to help solve the problems we face in the future
