reallywantcolumbia Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 he AHA's numbers over the past 5 or 6 years have pretty clearly shown that there are far more people with US or european history degrees than job openings, but asian, african, and latin american history tend to have about as many job openings as new applicants. depending on your subfield, competition could be much worse or not too bad. very very true!
