The History Major at Ohio State offers students an opportunity for
advanced study across the spectrum of time and in different geographical
areas. The History Major includes a focus on one geographical area, and
distribution requirements with the selection of courses dealing with the
human experience both before and after 1750, as well as distribution of
courses in different geographical areas. For instance, all history majors
will enroll in courses that deal with the varieties of human experience in
Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
The Ohio State University Alumni who have majored in History served

as well as other professional schools for business and public administration.
