At Eastern, a BA in History provides a broad knowledge of history with special skills in critical analysis, research, and writing.  Coupling strength in European and American history, our students develop a Christian interpretation of the past and the present.

The purpose of the BA in Global Studies and Service at Eastern University is to prepare students for Kingdom work in cross-cultural settings.  Anthropology provides ethnographic skills and an understanding of culture; missiology clarifies the gospel of Jesus and the mission of God. Together, the two disciplines create a unique degree that emphasizes the dialogue between Christ and cultures.

Political Science emphasizes the study of political institutions and processes of politics in historical, contemporary, domestic, foreign, and international contexts. The BA in Political Science prepares students for employment in various fields such as local government, nonprofits and NGOs, labor organizations, as well as lobbying and intergovernmental offices of businesses. Political Science is further a gateway to advanced studies in law, international relations, global studies, advocacy, public policy, public administration, international development and more.

Whether working in business, education, medicine, social work, the ministry or any field, a person will confront issues arising out of governmental actions and public policy. Whatever major you choose, a minor in political science will be a good complement and provide you with more knowledge about how government impacts our daily lives.

This Pre-Law Minor offers an interdisciplinary introduction to law and legal institutions that emphasizes the skill-sets that are necessary for success in law school, as well as graduate programs and careers related to law. Law schools do not require applicants to have a specific major or to have taken specific classes, but they do emphasize that certain skills are essential to success in their programs. This program offers students a guided path to developing those skills, while allowing the freedom to major in a subject that interests them. The program is suggested for individuals considering law school or graduate programs with a legal emphasis.

The minor in American History at Eastern University is designed to educate students in the fields of United States legal history, the early American republic, American intellectual history and the civil war and reconstruction, among other areas.
