National Council on Public History

Program Introduction

MA in Applied and Public History (MAPH) seeks to promote the appropriate use of history in the arts, business, government, and other sectors of society. We seek to train candidates to appropriately use history to anticipate and exploit trends, craft policies, make decisions, and pursue their endeavors. It offers four tracks, including oral history, museum studies, heritage conservation, and media technology. MAPH has become a regional hub for educating future public historians and history educators in Asia.
