Program Overview
BHSU history majors explore the worlds of American, European, global, and local history. The Black Hills are full of fascinating history. Our surrounding area offers students the chance to study the Gold Rush, tour ghost towns, and learn about the Native American Cultures.
Our small classroom sizes allow students to form better connections with their peers and professors. Close classroom connections allow professors to guide you in considering career options. Many historians pursue the teaching profession or continue their education in graduate school. Others might find jobs in government agencies, museums, historical societies, research organizations, and archives.
