Careers in History
UWSP History alumni have taken many diverse paths. Some have gone on
for Master’s and Doctoral Degrees at the University of Chicago,
Illinois,
Iowa and Wisconsin. Many are teachers in Wisconsin public
and private schools and librarians and administrators in numerous county
and
university libraries and archives. Hundreds of our former students
are applying the skills that they learned in the study of History in local,
state
and federal government offices that include the various police and
sheriff offices, Departments of Homeland Security and Defense, the
Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission and the Maryland Department of Natural
Resources. Still more have gone on to law school, work in small
businesses
in the areas of retail, insurance and consulting, as well as large
corporations such as Ameriprise Financial
Services,
Kohl’s, Humana Insurance and General Electric Power Systems. There
seem to be limitless opportunities for future study and careers with a
UWSP
History degree.
