EXPLORE THE PAST, SHAPE THE FUTURE History majors at the University of Delaware explore the past while acquiring skills to shape the future. The major prepares graduates for successful careers in fields from consulting to government, education to the arts and from museums to management. Alums report that our program taught them to analyze complexity and prepared them to communicate their conclusions clearly and convincingly. Effective analysis of documents, objects and ideas from the past requires "historical empathy" – reading with an open mind in ways that foster deep understanding of the perspectives and motivations of others. This kind of open-mindedness prepares our students for more than career success. Students also learn to draw on the wisdom of the past to make meaningful lives for themselves as informed citizens and stewards of our evolving future.

University of Delaware offers the Bachelor of History as a full-time degree delivered on campus at its main campus in Newark , United States of America. Taught in English and completed over 4 years, the program equips students with the theoretical knowledge and practical skills required for history and related professional fields. The next available intake begins on August 29, 2027.
