We believe that the study of history provides our
students with the tools to understand the past and how it continues to inform
our present, and that the skills of an historian prepare history students to
excel in many careers, including those in small business, teaching, law,
journalism, the civil service, archives and universities.
Our teaching objectives are
to:
- Increase
understanding of the emergence of the modern world, with particular emphasis on
themes related to UNBC’s mandate.
- Develop
critical skills required for full and active citizenship.
- Foster
independent learning through a variety of research and study techniques.
- Encourage
the application of skills in community involvement and employment.
