Public History--What Is It?

It is important when choosing a program that you find a school that offers courses that you are interested in, particularly since each school varies in what they offer. Types of Public History courses include: Curatorial Practices for Historical Agencies (Albany), Community Studies (Wilmington), Historical Archeology (U Mass Amherst), Introduction to Historical Preservation (ASU), Records Management (Albany), The History of the Book (ASU), Heritage Tourism (Wilmington), and Information Systems and Technology (Albany). Some courses are common at all schools, for example, Introduction to Public History, but it is important to choose a program that will teach you the skills for your chosen Public History area of concentration.
