History

The study of history involves the examination of human societies and how they experience change over time. At Luther College, you can study history from a variety of perspectives. We currently offer courses covering the history of Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the United States. The department cooperates with programs such as Scandinavian Studies, Russian Studies, and Africana Studies, Women and Gender Studies, and Environmental Studies, offering history courses in all of those areas. We also administer the Museum Studies minor.
After graduation, history majors pursue a wide variety of careers, including (but not limited to) education, law, museum administration, and government service. For more information about the department and what we offer, click on the menu items on the left.
