University of Central Arkansas

On behalf of the history faculty, I welcome you to the website of the UCA History Department.  Here you find information about the faculty, our courses, the history major/minor, the MA degree in history, and activities and groups sponsored by the department.  Our department is large with faculty trained at universities through the country.  The faculty have won several of the university's teaching and research awards as well as nationally-competitive awards and fellowships.

With more than 200 undergraduate history majors, the department is able to offer a rich and diverse curriculum.  UCA history graduates have gone on to graduate study at universities such as Harvard, Yale, UCLA, the University of Texas, Auburn, St. Louis University, Boston University, Ole Miss, Kansas State, and the University of Arkansas.  Our graduates have taken teaching jobs in schools throughout Arkansas and beyond.  Others have found employment at museums, archives, and national park system, while some have careers in government and business.

We hope our website will provide you with information that you need, and if you have a specific question please contact me at the link below.
