- History majors at Reed develop a broad range of analytical skills in order to better understand the legacy—conscious or unconscious—that each present has inherited from its past and the many perspectives one can have on those legacies.
- The department offers courses that cover a variety of periods and areas of study. Rather than focusing on specific coverage of conventional fields, however, the program exposes students to the diversity of approaches to studying the past, including social, intellectual, economic, cultural, gender, legal, and imperial, with the aim of developing student's abilities to conduct an independent inquiry and craft their own analytical and critical interpretations of the past.
- Upon successful completion of the history major, students will have developed a broad range of analytical skills with which to approach the critical study of the past. Majors will be able to:
- Discuss, analyze and assess professional academic scholarship from the field of history:
- Summarize and critically assess the strengths and weaknesses of works of historical scholarship
- Identify, articulate, and assess historical arguments in such works
- Analyze the use of primary and secondary sources in such works
- Identify the scholarly significance of such works, including the contribution they seek to make to the field, the conversations they engage in, and the methodologies they use
- Execute and defend a significant independent research project in history:
- Develop a topic of interest into a historical research question
- Develop and pursue a methodology appropriate to addressing a historical research question, including the identification and evaluation source materials
- Produce a coherent and significant historical argument supported by primary and secondary source evidence and place that argument within a larger scholarly conversation
- Practice ethical and responsible historical scholarship, including proper and thorough citation following the conventions of historical scholarship
- Undertake significant revisions based on their own critical reflection and feedback from advisors and other readers
- Produce clear and coherent historical writing in pieces of different lengths and genres, including a coherent, long-form document based on original research that incorporates the best practices of historical scholarship
- Orally present, discuss and defend work done, both to experts and to scholars from outside the field
