Bachelor of Science - History

The study of history seeks to answer the question to how did people get to today. Historians study the “great men” of the past, but also the ordinary men and women whose collective actions propel the world into the future. The Bachelor of Science in History students at the South Dakota State University act as historians, answering the questions of how civilizations rose and fell, how wars began and ended, how humans progressed from being hunter-gatherers to establishing complex societies based on agriculture, industry and ideas.
