History Education Major
Bachelor of Science Degree
A Graduate’s Perspective
I majored in History Education with a second teaching field in English. The classes I took prepared me for my internship at Pensacola Christian Academy and my internship proved to be a great learning experience. My advisory teachers at PCA offered me their time and experience to help me become a better teacher. The internship also solidified in my heart the calling God gave me.

History is more than a chronological record of past events. It is a view of the mainstream of
historical events as they harmonize and correlate with the Scriptural record. Historical events
reveal the nations’ response to God as they interact with each other. This major includes
other related areas such as American government, economics, and political science.
Academic Program Fee: $100 per semester or $25 per payment.
