class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learn About History, Gain High-Demand Career Skills<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>History is much more than memorizing names and dates. It thoughtfully explores and interprets the complex interplay of people, political institutions, religions, cultures, economics, laws, education, commerce, events, and other forces that created the world we live in today.<br><br>By studying history, you learn how to put current local, state, national, and international events into perspective. You also learn critical skills that employers highly value no matter what profession you pursue \u2013 even if it has nothing to do with history. You learn how to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Think critically and analytically<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Express yourself effectively in writing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find, assess, and integrate information from diverse sources<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Document evidence and conclusions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make a case using evidence<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Discover solutions to current problems based on a historical perspective<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Only a small percentage of history majors go on to become historians. Instead, they become lawyers, librarians, business people, writers, archivists, researchers, teachers, politicians, and even entertainers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leaders in every field, from business to the arts, can point to their training in history as the start of their path to success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For your convenience, you can take University of Michigan-Flint history courses on campus or online. Some of the latter courses are mixed-mode, offering the flexibility of online learning with the immersive experience of hands-on learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"program\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-top:0rem;padding-bottom:0rem\">Why UM-Flint?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"mb-2 pr-5\">The quality of our faculty is the most important reason to study history at UM-Flint. They\u2019re scholars who are engaged in research, but they come to UM-Flint because they love teaching and helping students succeed. That commitment extends to mentoring students. As a history major, you have a faculty mentor with whom you can discuss selecting classes, internship opportunities, career possibilities, graduate school, and more.<br><br>Here are a few other reasons you should study history at UM-Flint:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list pr-5\">\n<li>The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.umflint.edu\/case\/history\/wyatt-exploration-program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Wyatt Exploration Program<\/a>&nbsp;sponsors on-campus events such as guest lectures and extracurricular activities.
