Military History

Classes such as The Crusades, American Military History, The French Revolution, The Civil War Era and Revolution in Britain: 1603-1815 are just a few of the many options available for students to learn and study how the ramifications of these events shaped future civilizations. The military history major is excellent for students seeking careers in academia or the U. S. government, or for students who intend to continue their education in graduate school.
Everything in between.
From the required course “Growth of Western Civilization to 1715” to classes such as “The Vietnam War Era” and “American Foreign Relations,” you can rest assured that all historically significant military conflicts are covered. But military history is more than the study of battles and campaigns; it inclues understanding the political, social, economic and cultural ramfications of war and conflict.
