Introduction

Mount Aloysius students majoring in history and political science have the unique opportunity to be introduced to both areas of study, progressing to upper-division work, rather than narrowly focusing on only one area. This separates Mount Aloysius from other colleges.

Students studying History/Political Science at Mount Aloysius benefit from the support of engaged and accessible faculty, small class sizes, and outstanding internships.

Students who complete the major in History/Political Science will demonstrate:

Historical/Political Literacy – Students will be able to distinguish between primary and secondary sources and explain how each is used to make or support a claim;

Critical Thinking -Students will be able to articulate how questions can be viewed from different perspectives and evaluate competing interpretations that arise from these perspectives;

Research Skills – Students will acquire basic historical and political science research skills, including finding relevant primary and secondary resources through the effective use of libraries, archives, databases, and online materials and accurately interpret and document these materials;

Communication Skills – Students will learn to organize and express their thoughts clearly and coherently both in writing and orally; and

Documentation & Presentation – Students should demonstrate their mastery of the knowledge and skills involved in professional practice by documenting and evaluating arguments in a professional manner culminating in conceptualizing and executing a significant piece of original research.
