Military History Online Bachelor's Degree

Bachelor of Arts in Military History

The Bachelor of Arts in Military History at American Public University is for those who seek understanding of the military art and science as well as a general education in the liberal arts. The degree is quite different from history degrees at other universities because it is focused on the forces of human conflict and how those forces have shaped and continue to shape civilization.

The program ensures that students will learn about the "big picture" through exposure to five historical perspectives while allowing them to tailor the major to their individual interests during the junior and senior years. Students receive a foundation in: (1) the philosophy, strategy, and tactics of conflict; (2) generalship, leadership, and management of warfare, and of people; (3) great historical battles and their influences on society; (4) the influence of technology on warfare, and on society; and (5) the history of related issues such as diplomacy, foreign affairs, international law, war and society, and future war. 

We want you to make an informed decision about the university that's right for you. For more about our graduation rates, the median debt of students who completed the program, and other important information, visit www.apus.edu/disclosure.
