Have you ever wanted to travel to another era ? Maybe step into a time machine and see ancient Greece or 19th century Europe firsthand? That may not be possible but a Bachelor of Arts degree is the next-best thing. With a history degree, you take an intellectual trip to the past that will better help you understand the forces that have shaped our world today. You can engage people about history and introduce students to new worlds, times, places and cultures. Even better, you'll hone your critical thinking, reading, writing and research skills.
