Course Work
The study of history involves a reflective and critical analysis of human
civilization through an investigation of a wide variety of its characteristic
institutions. The curriculum in history is designed to encourage the development
of both critical and reflective habits of mind by balancing emphasis on
primary source materials with the study of important secondary works.
The department welcomes comparative studies and seeks to relate its courses
to the broadest possible spectrum of academic disciplines. In this connection,
the history major is easily integrated into the Africana, East Asian Studies,
Education and Educational Studies, Feminist and Gender Studies, Latin
American and Iberian Studies, and Peace and Conflict Studies Areas of
Concentration.
The department has no specific language requirement, but students who
wish to major in history should note that some advanced courses require
special preparation in foreign languages.
