The study of history at Casper College is designed to prepare students
for further work in the discipline or in other fields in the humanities and
social sciences, and to give perspective on the issues and problems of
the contemporary world. Undergraduate work in history can prepare the
student for graduate study in the field and careers in government, the law,
archive and museum management, and a number of other areas in the
private sector. The skills of critical thinking and analysis which are honed by
historical study are essential for all educated individuals and are useful in a
wide variety of career applications.
