Bachelor of Arts - History Webster University

Program Description

History majors and minors at Webster University learn not only the outlines of modern history, but also how to make well-constructed historical arguments, and how to research and analyze relevant historical work within multiple academic fields. The history program at Webster combines a traditional liberal arts approach to the history degree with an innovative approach to course offerings. The faculty value critical thinking and intellectual inquiry and offer topic-specific instruction in their areas of expertise starting in students' first semester. The history curriculum also reflects relevant current events to take learning beyond the classroom and into the community: in recent years, students have designed and installed an exhibit at the old courthouse in downtown St. Louis and participated in the "Change Begins with Me" program at the Holocaust museum.
