“If there were an Academy Awards for career
charts, we'd bet on the chart Careers for
Graduates in History. These charts are terrific.
Nothing quite like them on the market.”

“No business historian needs to be convinced
of the positive contribution business history
could make to management and particularly
management education. The National Center
for the Study of History recently developed a
very interesting and informative wall chart that
summarizes the possible links between history
and business and the benefits history can offer
the business community.”

“Connecting Scholarship & Careers is another in
the many charts from the National Center.
Those who have their students write research
paperswill find the discussion of the 4 steps to
complete a research report valuable.”

Comments by Students
“While in the Career Center at the University of
South Florida recently, I saw your flowchart on
the uses of a history degree. As a history major,
I was overjoyed to see all the possibilities open
to me.”
“Could you please send any information you
have on careers in information management? I
am a forty-four-year-old student looking for a
field and saw your chart up at the University of
Detroit. This sounds right up my alley!”
“Recently while visiting the University of Texas
in Arlington I was in the Student Advisors
Office and saw [your] chart on the wall. May I
please get a copy of it? My girlfriend is
majoring in history and is very interested in
future career possibilities. She comes from a
relatively non-academic background (she's the
first in her family to go to college) and could
use all the help she can get in the way of career
guidance.”
“Please send me your history map outlining
different careers in history. I saw your map at a
work shop and was immediately fascinated.”
