专业概况

Humanities is the collective term for the study of the human condition—particularly aspects of human society and culture. It encompasses many distinct disciplines, including history, music, philosophy, and literature. In contrast to the mainly empirical approaches of the natural sciences, the humanities focus on research, using methods that take primarily critical or comparative approaches with a significant historical element.

Humanities-History provides students an opportunity to appreciate the story of humankind. Students explore patterns of human thought and successes in human invention, and develop an understanding of the evolution of humanity’s past and how it relates to the present. Students will study the major fields of history, the tools at the historian’s disposal, and the methodologies and interpretations necessary to fully implement the craft of history.

The humanities include history, ancient and modern languages, literature, human geography, anthropology, law, politics, religion, music, and art. As Humanities-History majors rather than just History, students are obliged to take a broader range of courses in the Humanities, encouraging an interdisciplinary focus.

The study of history provides students with a more nuanced understanding of the world, teaching tolerance and cultural literacy. Studying history offers an understanding of a wide range of topics from across the globe, from American to African, from military to economic, from ancient to modern.

Some of the topical areas where Florida Tech regularly offers courses:

American history The history of science World art history World War II in film Military history Intro to Asia, and The history of South Africa.

The History faculty also have particular expertise in the history of science, which is a natural fit for the STEM focus of Florida Tech as a whole. Students will be encouraged to take courses that facilitate this cross-disciplinary approach.

Career Options

The study of history encourages students to develop critical analysis skills crucial to analytical tasks in any career. The majority of History majors go on to have careers in education, training, libraries, business management, legal occupations, sales, and office/administrative support.

Former History majors include former US presidents, prime ministers, supreme court justices, authors, musicians, and actors.
