Ohio State University’s Master of Arts in History provides a rigorous academic environment where students engage deeply with historical events, historiography, and archival research. The program emphasizes original scholarship, critical historiographical debates, and public history methodologies. Students are trained to interpret complex historical narratives, analyze primary sources, and contribute to global and regional historical discourse. With access to university archives, digital history labs, and expert faculty across thematic areas like transatlantic slavery, Cold War diplomacy, and social movements, graduates are prepared for careers in academia, museums, government agencies, or publishing.
