Bachelor of Arts - History (General) (NKC)

In the History program, students will develop their research and writing skills. Lots of careers are based on that. The University of Windsor offers public history courses relating to how people interact with the past — think museums, documentaries, walking tours and history websites — with an emphasis on digital history, and practicums for hands-on experience.

Students will learn: • Producing well-researched written and oral material that integrates contemporary and historical perspectives and engages diverse audiences • Researching at a high level by collecting data and processing/ synthesizing substantial information • Articulating the nature and importance of events in appropriate cultural, social, and historical contexts • Identifying historic precedents for governmental and institutional policies and strategic plans • Acquiring skillsets that facilitate the creation of public and digital exhibitions, datasets and websites • Appreciating, understanding, internalizing, and applying various historical and cultural perspectives to real-world situations
