If you want credentials for a job and could care less about rigor, get a master's in history from SHSU. If you want a serious history degree, don't bother. Although a fair few of the gradaute students are competitive, most are horribly underprepared for gradaute work. It baffles me to think that this department is handing out M.A.s for such low quality work.

In general, the "graduate" program in history at SHSU is upper-division undergraduate quality, at best.

History/Histories (art history/etc.)

The university and students in general are both wonderful but I would not choose this particular graduate program again.
