Overview

Associate of Arts Degree in History

With the Associate of Arts Degree in History, you will be introduced to the discipline and will be prepared for further study, either in History or in other areas. 

By completing the Associate of Arts degree at KPU, you will gain a broader understanding of the world in which you live and will become a more informed and engaged citizen. 

You can focus on a particular geographic region; however, we recommend that you complete as broad a range of courses as possible.

The Associate of Arts degree can be used as an entry pathway into the Bachelor of Arts Degree in History; however, you should note that the BA only requires six credits of History at the first year level and six credits of History at the second year level.

History courses are reading and writing intensive. It is therefore strongly recommended that you complete the English requirements of your degree within your first two semesters.
