Why You Should Earn This Master's From AMU

Focused On Your Goals

You begin your program with a study of historiography, an examination of how history has been written and interpreted. A majority of your coursework is then driven by your choice of concentration.

Professionally Oriented

Those who choose the concentration in Public History complete a practicum in a setting such as a historic preservation agency, historic site, cultural resource center, national park or forest, or in an editorial capacity.

A Solid Foundation

This program gives you the opportunity to hone your communication, research, and analytical skills, while sharpening your ability to present compelling arguments.

Enriched Learning

Your academic journey is guided by faculty who are authors and historians themselves, actively conducting research. They are passionate about their work and generously mentor students in preparation for their capstone project.

Rich Resources

You will have access to our University’s online library and its thousands of academic texts and materials, providing an abundant source for reading and research material.

Peer Collaboration

Through student activities, like the Saber and Scroll History Club and the Historical Studies Honor Society, there are ample opportunities to interact with fellow students, among them educators, historians, and history enthusiasts. Our internationally circulated student-run journal, The Saber and Scroll, affords students the opportunity to be professionally published.
