Program Overview

The BSocSc will challenge your thinking about the world and the people who live in it. The degree focuses on contemporary social issues, the ways in which humans interact with these issues and how such actions can be monitored and modified.


Major : History

Historians study the past to understand the present. History at Waikato will inspire you to understand current events in light of historical context and give you a first-rate history education from a top 200 QS-rated programme.
 

Why study History?

Studying history develops critical skills: locating and analysing sources, formulating research questions, and effective writing. These skills are relevant to careers in the media, education, business, and policy, as well as professional work as an historian.

In Aotearoa New Zealand and internationally, the teaching and delivery of the past through multisensory forms such as oral history, art, and performance is providing opportunities for Historians to work in an array of exciting areas such as music, gaming, and film.
