History

Professors Rizzo (Chair), Hardy, Pearson, Pierce, Traboulsi; Associate Professors Judson, Waters; Assistant Professors Dunn, Roubinek

The purpose of history is to provide a broad liberal arts education that addresses fundamental questions about the nature of humanity, of society, of past experiences and of the times in which we live. UNC Asheville History graduates use their training in numerous ways: half the majors have entered careers in business and education, while the remainder are employed in such fields as national and state government, law, medicine, banking, the military, the ministry, social service, law enforcement, graduate study and archival work. This partial list demonstrates the diversity of careers open to those trained in history.

As many as 8 semester hours of credit for courses outside the area of history may be counted toward the requirements of either program if approved by the History Department chair.
