Overview

This M.A. in American History and Government is intended for high school social studies teachers who want demanding graduate study in the subject matter they teach. Each course examines the original historical documents behind our understanding of the past. Delivery combines week-long seminars held on campus each summer with live online video courses. The degree needs 30 semester credit hours: a required core tracing American history from the Revolution onward, plus electives that let students tailor their study. Students may finish with a thesis, an applied capstone project or a qualifying exam. Tuition is quoted per credit hour, with separate on-campus and online rates, and payment plans and federal direct loans are available.
