Department of History


Harry W. Fritz, Chair

For the student in search of a broad education rather than in training for a particular occupation, the History Department offers an exciting program of instruction. It is designed to provide a knowledge and understanding of the background and ramifications of present local, national, and world affairs. The program emphasizes understanding rather than the memorization of names and dates. Students are taught how to read critically, analyze thoughtfully, conduct research carefully, and write intelligently.

Toward this end, the department offers a wide variety of courses ranging in time, location, and subject. For those students interested in local history there are courses on Montana, the West and unique aspects of the frontier. Oter classes stress the nature of early American society, the American Revolution, family and gender in America, the Civil War, and diplomacy in the Cold War. Still others emphasize European social, cultural, and intellectual history, European exploration, the French Revolution, Islamic civilization, Chinese history, and Russian history. Topical courses concentrate upon the European peasantry, documentary analysis, diplomacy, war and peace, terrorism, and environmental history.

The History Department helps to prepare men and women for many different kinds of occupations. Graduates are employed in federal, state or local government positions ranging from domestic to foreign service, from senators to research analysts. Many teach history in Montana or in other states while others pursue their educations at advanced graduate schools earning master or doctoral degrees. Several have been awarded Rhodes or Marshall scholarships. Lawyers, journalists and businessmen also are trained by the department; many combine history with political science, journalism, or business. History provides not only a basis for the pursuit of their chosen profession but also furnishes knowledge and perspective for intelligent leadership of citizens in community affairs.
