Oxford University Study Option in History

SNHU history students have the option of a special history study abroad program with Oxford University where they may complete some of their history credits while in England. This is not the usual semester abroad experience because the student actually becomes a matriculated member of the Oxford community through an application and acceptance procedure. This means they will be recorded as having been a student at Oxford University. The flexibility of the history major prepares students to enter a wide variety of fields upon graduation. SNHU students have gone on to graduate school in many areas in addition to history. They are active in the Department of State, politics, museum work, research, law, journalism, and of course, business. Some choose to teach. The history major prepares you for whatever life may throw your way because it teaches you to think critically, research thoroughly, synthesize varied and disparate materials and ideas all the while communicating effectively. These skills translate to every walk of life.
