History Majors?

[smile]

I was just wondering if there were any History majors out there and what their foucus is. (Europe, 1800-1900, Asia, etc. etc.) And how you like it? And what do you plan on doing with it?

And if you have another major? Much of what you learn for the History major seems that you have to learn anyway so it would be easy to double major I've been told. I'm thinking of double majoring in Theology too. I'm not quite sure yet though...

Thanks,
Kemper

I'm a history major with a secondary ed. emphasis. I'm also a dance minor, but I'll most likely end up double majoring.

I love history but am a biology major due to the high demand for science teachers. I love the Civil War period. If I ever have a large amnt. of extra money I want to re-enact.

Here Here for History!!! I don't really need a focus for my degree (specialist...i.e. 10/20 courses be history)...This year I find I really like North American History...i.e. Canadian and American History...its GREAT stuff
What does one do with History (BESIDES teaching)? Cause I don't want to teach so....
Although finding Noah's Ark has some appeal...

My degree is Social Studies, Secondary teacher. But I am going to minor in history. There is no real concentration in the minor, because you have to have a well rounded history. I prefer American and World Civ though.

"Social Studies"? To which college did you go?

I'm a History Major and am entering Grad School. I do not know what I'll concentrate in, but I find European, Middle Eastern, and American histories more fascination than others, but not by much; the whole subject I find invigorating to learn of.

Still going rather. Just look at my sig/avatar! Anyways, my degree name is confusing, but I will be able to teach any social studies class from 7-12 grades. With a minor in History (and in Poly Sci) I will probably teach those two.

Double major in History and Political Science then one day hopefully law school.
