class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Our Department is the academic home for experienced faculty dedicated to teaching, service, and research and to undergraduate students who share a devotion to learning and appreciation for the study of history. <\/p><p>Our history program is especially strong in modern history, military history, and Louisiana history. We promotes awareness of state and local history and culture, especially the history of the bayou region, and faculty are involved in a variety of community events. Through its affiliation with the National World War II Museum in New Orleans, the program offers opportunities to earn college credit for study programs in New Orleans and Normandy, France. And for the past 44 years, history faculty have led the Nicholls Europe program which provides students with an opportunity to travel to and study in Europe. <\/p><p>Our Public History program offers students the opportunity to earn a Certificate in Public History.\u00a0 Through internships, coursework and service learning opportunities, students gain practical experience in area museums, archives and other institutions that provide employment-ready skills for a variety of professions.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>A recent study in the Chronicle of Higher Education shows that history graduates have the highest median earnings of graduates in the liberal arts. Graduates of the history program find employment in many areas including teaching, government, museums, archives, law, industry, and the armed forces. Many graduates further their education in law school or graduate school.<\/p><p>In these pages, you will be able to learn a great deal about the department, its faculty, its affiliated organizations, its study abroad programs, and its course offerings. We encourage you to search through our links and to contact Dr. Paul Wilson if you have any questions about majoring in history.<\/p><p><span id=\"eeb-50539\"><a class=\"mailto-link\"
