Introduction
History is the study and research of major social, political, cultural, and economic events of the past that shaped the contemporary world. In its broadest sense history is the study of the human experience. The study of history contributes to cultural literacy and develops critical thinking and other useful skills while helping students use the past to understand today and plan for tomorrow. The History curriculum prepares the students for transfer to a university to complete a Baccalaureate degree in a related discipline. In addition, the History curriculum makes an excellent supplement to any number of other majors because it enhances an individual’s ability to think critically, communicate effectively, and provides an understanding of the human experience which will enrich any profession.
