| What it is | History is the study of past human societies, events, and ideas using primary documents, archaeological evidence, and scholarly interpretation. You'll analyze how people lived, what shaped their choices, and how the past connects to the world today. This program suits you if you're curious about understanding different cultures and time periods rather than just memorizing dates. | A four-year Bachelor of Arts in History means you study the past — events, people, societies, and how they shaped the world — through reading primary sources, analyzing interpretations, and writing essays. Unlike a shorter history diploma or certificate, this degree gives you time to specialize in particular periods or regions and develop research skills expected in graduate study or professional work. It suits people who enjoy reading, debate, and asking "why did things happen this way?" | Art History is the study of paintings, sculpture, architecture, and other visual works from different cultures and time periods, along with understanding the historical contexts that shaped them. Unlike studio art programs, you focus on analysis and interpretation rather than creating art yourself. This program suits students who want to understand how art reflects society and are comfortable writing essays and doing research. | Art history is the study of visual art and design across time and cultures, examining paintings, sculpture, architecture, and other works to understand their meaning and impact. You learn to analyze and write about art critically rather than create it yourself, which sets it apart from studio art programs. This program suits students who are curious about how art reflects society and want to develop strong research and communication skills. |
