Identity and Ideology in the UMPI MA in American Studies

My question is what can you do with a interdisciplinary quasi history Masters Degree? How could you spin that on your resume?

I'm not sure what you mean by spinning it. Usually, I just list my degrees as just an independent section of my resume. However, it introduces you to several different facets of history and how social constructs relate to it. For some, this may satisfy their appetite for a Masters, for others, this may be an alternative to a direct history if they cannot find one that satisfies their needs. Like I mentioned before, for individuals that have doubts, it probably best to reach out to UMPI and gain more insight, or look for other alternatives. I created a post last year or so about a cheap Masters in History at Gettysburg College

Hey ashkir, if I remember correctly, you're now part of the faculty at UMPI? Would you be eligible for a discount for these programs? If money and time isn't an issue, I say jump in and enroll in the program. What's one more Master's is what I tell myself all the time lol

Nothing serious in the academic realm of history (even less so without a thesis), but it does check a master's box for government jobs or other generic job postings. 

Hope that helps.
