Students freely explore and connect with the past while preparing for meaningful careers in their future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our students don&#8217;t just read about history, they delve into experiential learning opportunities &#8211; working directly with professors through the Butler Summer Institute, securing internships at local museums and archives, participating in public and digital history projects, and studying in a variety of locations around the world. Hands-on experiences in the Indianapolis community include researching our own campus to behind-the-scenes tours at the Indiana State Museum and Crown Hill Cemetery. Students have interned at local community institutions, including the Eiteljorg Museum,  Indiana Historical Society, Indiana State Archives, and the Indiana State House. Recent destinations abroad with our faculty include the Rome Among the Ruins Summer Program and the Semester in Rome Program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Closer to home, you will study a variety of time periods and places with faculty expertise in Europe, East Asia, Latin America, Africa, the United States, and more. Students learn critical thinking skills by analyzing history and how to conduct historical research in libraries and archives, creating better historians and thinkers in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The History program also works directly with the Anthropology and Classics programs as well as with the Political Science Department for combined majors, where students study two areas in one major. We also house the Geography &amp; Urban Planning, Museum Studies, and Asian Studies minors in our Department. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"two-column-two-buttons alignfull has-no-block-start-margin has-background has-custom-tertiary-background-color wp-block-butler-two-column-two-buttons\">\n\t<div class=\"two-column-two-buttons__inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"two-column-two-buttons__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"two-column-two-buttons__headline butler-auto-contrast\">\n\t\t\t\t\tTake Your Learning Outside the Classroom.\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"two-column-two-buttons__actions\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-buttons butler-button-group is-vertical wp-block-butler-button-group\">\n\t\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-text-link-blue-medium butler-auto-contrast\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/history-anthropology-classics\/history\/resources\/\">History Resources<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-text-link-blue-medium butler-auto-contrast\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/history-anthropology-classics\/history\/majors\/\">Study Abroad<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section style=\"--butler-gallery-carousel-slide-count:3;--butler-gallery-carousel-autoplay-delay:7000ms\" class=\"butler-gallery-carousel alignfull has-no-block-start-margin wp-block-butler-gallery-carousel\" data-paused=\"false\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-gallery-carousel-shell\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-gallery-carousel-controls\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button\n\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\tclass=\"butler-toggle butler-toggle-outline butler-auto-contrast\"\n\t\taria-pressed=\"false\"\n\t\taria-label=\"Pause carousel autoplay\"\n\t\tdata-pause-label=\"Pause carousel autoplay\"\n\t\tdata-play-label=\"Play carousel autoplay\"\n\t\t data-auto-contrast-source=\".swiper-slide-active .butler-two-column-full-width-media-background\"\t>\n\t\t<span class=\"butler-toggle-icon butler-toggle-icon-pause\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t<svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" role=\"presentation\" focusable=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t<use href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/wp-content\/plugins\/butler-blocks\/build\/assets\/images\/plyr.svg#plyr-pause\" xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/wp-content\/plugins\/butler-blocks\/build\/assets\/images\/plyr.svg#plyr-pause\"><\/use>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"butler-toggle-icon butler-toggle-icon-play\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t<svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" role=\"presentation\" focusable=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t<use href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/wp-content\/plugins\/butler-blocks\/build\/assets\/images\/plyr.svg#plyr-play\" xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/wp-content\/plugins\/butler-blocks\/build\/assets\/images\/plyr.svg#plyr-play\"><\/use>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper butler-gallery-carousel-swiper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide wp-block-butler-two-column-full-width-media\" data-slide-label=\"Public History\">\n\t\t<article class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-slide has-card has-no-block-start-margin no-cutout is-overlay-gradient\">\n\t<div class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-slide-media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-overlay\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-background\"\n\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.butler.edu\/www\/sites\/12\/2024\/11\/08102128\/Charlene-Major-Taylor-1.png\"\n\t\t\t\t\talt=\"Charlene Major Taylor seated in an armchair, speaking into a microphone on a stage\"\n\t\t\t\t\tstyle=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%;\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\/>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-content\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-card\" style=\"--butler-two-column-full-width-media-accent:var(--wp--preset--color--custom-contrast-7);\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-headline\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-headline-text butler-auto-contrast\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPublic History\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-description\">Public history describes the many and diverse ways in which history is put to work in the world.
