Careers:Historians

Description:

Historians ask questions such as: What caused the Protestant Reformation? Why did convicts help settle Australia? How did the Hudson’s Bay Company impact exploration of Canada?



History is about change and continuity over time and space. Historians gain an understanding of complex cause-and-effect relationships by gathering, organizing and evaluating historical sources from a variety of academic perspectives. During the course of your studies, you'll gain research capabilities, logical and abstract reasoning skills, and the capacity to think in historical terms.
