In the Bachelor of Arts - History program, students will study the past to understand how and why change happens. This dynamic discipline challenges them to imagine how other people thought and lived in many places and conditions, from the ancient past to recent times. They will focus their studies on what interests them: cultural or art history, social or military history, the history of crime or political history.
In addition to students' history courses, they can add an option or minor that allows them to dive deeper into their major area of study or broaden their knowledge:
- Applied Digital Option
- Legal Studies Option
- Management Option
- Music and Cultural History Option
- Research Specialization
Sample career options include:
- director of communications
- diversity officer
- foreign service officer
- lawyer
- public policy advisor
- historical site administrator
- museum curator
- politician
- teacher
The fundamentals of business are at the heart of any organization and many careers. For students who complete their degree in an Arts, Economics, Science or Music program, Wilfrid Laurier University's Management option will provide them with an understanding of the core principles of the business world, including accounting, marketing, human resources, operations, policy, and finance.
