Online Master’s in History

A first-of-its-kind master’s in history

For more than 150 years, SUNY Cortland has set the bar in teacher education. The university’s new online master’s program in history offers further proof.

• For teachers and translators of history: The program is ideal for social studies teachers seeking a master’s or anyone who works in educational roles in museums, archives or other settings.
   
• Unique in approach: Relevant class topics include a required course devoted to the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL), which dives deep into how people learn history.
  
  
• Strong faculty mentors: History Department faculty members are passionate about what they do: exploring new ideas, leading discussions and building professional relationships with students.
  
  
• Flexible and manageable: The 31-credit program is offered fully online with synchronous meetings at convenient times.
