Why study History?
History examines the way social, political, cultural and economic drivers develop and change over time. Looking to the past provides an essential tool for understanding the present. A Major in History offers rich and exciting offerings in European, Asian and Australian histories, spanning from the medieval world right through to contemporary studies. Geographically, courses in the major cover Germany, Britain, China, Japan, Southeast Asia, Australia, and others. Thematic courses cover big ideas including war, witchcraft, sexuality, urban life and genocide. Studying History develops high level research skills, critical thinking, and excellent communication skills. In the final year of study, History offers opportunities for work-integrated learning at museums, libraries, and heritage sites.
