At the crossroads of the humanities, the arts, and
the social sciences, history is the study of human experience as
it has
unfolded over the ages. As an academic discipline it presents
a unique gateway both to the richness of our cultural heritage
and to the immense variety of world civilizations.
All History courses at Cabrillo College emphasize analytical
writing as the primary means of evaluating student performance.
We believe that this rigorous training helps students to improve
their ability to weigh conflicting evidence, evaluate alternative
courses of action or divergent points of view, and express conclusions
logically and clearly.
The history major is an excellent preparation for
a number of rewarding careers:
| |
* university and college
teaching and research
* law
* education
* government
* diplomacy |
* business
* journalism
* international business
* librarianship
* and even medicine |
