History, B.A.


The Nicholls Online History program is designed for students interested in studying modern America, Europe, and Asia. An experienced and diverse faculty will offer an array of courses to provide students with an enhanced understanding of history and with the skills needed to think critically, write coherently, and identify significant issues impacting the modern world. Online courses are offered in eight-week sessions at an accelerated pace, and with the same professors as students who take on-campus courses.
