The Associates of Arts degree with a field of study in History is designated for students planning to transfer to a baccalaureate degree in History or Liberal Arts at four-year institutions. The curriculum includes general academic courses and electives that enable students who intend to major in History to transfer to four-year institutions. Completing a History program can expand opportunities in teaching, law school, and other related areas.

Instruction in History will promote critical thinking skills, develop writing techniques, and encourage better reading critique. The History program has a foreign language requirement attached to it that will complete most four-year institution requirements.
