Bring Your Passion for History to Life in the Classroom

The Social Sciences Department offers you both a solid academic background and rigorous preparation to help you succeed as a history or social studies teacher. Our History Secondary Education program includes a focused curriculum that features in-depth courses in history, social sciences, and education.

Your passion for history and social science will give life to important historical events, framing a deeper understanding of larger social, political, economic, and environmental contexts that shape human interactions, and, in turn, generating an enthusiasm for learning in your students.

Following , the 133-credit History and Social Science Elementary Education program requires students to complete a 24-credit major in history with additional courses from social science (24 credits) and an educational component of 27 credits Certification for the teaching of social sciences on the elementary level is also available through a program coordinated by the Social Sciences and Education departments.
