Along with three bachelor's degree options and three undergraduate minors (geography, military history, and the history of technology and science), we provide both M.A. and Ph.D. programs in history. As one of just three doctoral programs within UTA's College of Liberal Arts, our department offers complete fellowships, chances to teach undergraduate courses, and research assistance to help students finish their degrees efficiently. Studying history represents one of the most versatile and valuable educational choices available. Our curriculum and professors will guide you in recognizing and refining your innate strengths, foster the growth of new competencies, and equip you to navigate evolving situations while exposing you to diverse viewpoints. A historical education lays the foundation for lifelong achievement in both personal and professional realms.
