Studying 历史 Can Help You Carve a Future in a Variety of Careers
"历史…does not refer merely, or even principally, to the past…历史 is literally present in all that we do." — James Baldwin
Historians study, analyze, and interpret the facts and timelines of the past. 他们 use any recorded s我们的ce of information to perform this task, including government records, newspaper articles, photographs, institutional records, articles from periodicals, interviews, films, personal diaries, and letters.
Most historians have a specialty. This specialty could include a particular state or country, a certain time, or a particular person or group of persons (such as a presidential historian). A historian may also specialize in a less tangible field such as intellectual, cultural, political, or diplomatic history.
Career Opportunities
Only a small percentage of history majors go on to be professional historians. 而不是 most go on to become lawyers, librarians, businesspersons, writers, archivists, museum guides, researchers, teachers, politicians, and even entertainers. Leaders in every industry, from business to the arts, can point to their training as history majors as the starting point for their success. Indeed, historical study plays an important part in fostering well-rounded intellectual development as well as developing valuable career skills in research, writing, argumentation, and documentation.
