    About Bachelor of History

    History is dedicated to the methodical research of historical events, figures, objects, structures and processes. By investigating the development of political, social and cultural contexts and explaining the relationships between political and social structures and cultural developments, historians raise awareness for historical continuities and discontinuities and the peculiarities of certain eras. The study of history acquaints students with the questions, methods, theories and solution approaches of historical research with the aim of leading them to conduct their own research work. The focus of this degree program is on in-depth discussion of historical sources (mostly texts) from antiquity, medieval and modern times. Sources are verified by the students, their significance and informational value are analyzed and interpreted. Topics range from political history and the history of international relations to social and economic history, corporate history, legal and constitutional history, church history, urban history as well as the history of culture, ideas and education. This subject must be combined with a second subject. Possible lines of work: Archiving, publishing, libraries, media (newspapers, trade/professional journals, publishers, radio, television, etc.), public relations/press work, teaching at schools, adult education, tourism, museums/cultural institutions, policy consulting, diplomatic service, academia (teaching/research at universities, research institutions, etc.) Job options strongly depend on a graduates chosen major.
