History means the history of everything
- from the settlement of Wyoming to the
outbreak of massive wars in European
countries.
Historians are those who have a
passion to study how our civilization
and that of others have changed over
hundreds of years to bring us to where
we are today.
You’ll often find historians teaching
others about the past as teachers,
guest lecturers, or museum workers.
The history program at Sheridan
College is designed to introduce
students to the discipline of history.
Courses are designed to encourage and enhance critical writing and thinking skills and
analytical thinking; as well as the ability to think problems through
to logical conclusions, render informed decisions, and become
productive citizens in a world of diversity and globalization.
The program prepares students to transfer as juniors to a university
in the specialty they choose. Students interested in pursuing a
history degree will find career opportunities in teaching, public
history, museum work, management, grant writing, government
service, financial research services, and graduate studies.
