Undergraduate Degree Programs
The Department of History at Eastern Kentucky University offers two programs leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree:
- Bachelor of Arts in History
- Bachelor of Arts in History (Teaching)
Our program is very personalized and can offer you:
- Small class sizes (student/professor ratios of 20 to 30:1);
- Wide variety of history courses offered regularly;
- Active student organizations;
- Opportunity to gain "hands on" professional experience through course-related research and our co-op program;
- Nationally and internationally recognized and published professors.
If you are majoring in another discipline but love History, you may want to consider a Minor in History.
