Majors must complete a minimum of 36 semester hours in history. Of these, at least 27 hours must be at the 3-4000 level. AP or IB credits count toward the credits at the 2000 level. The one required course for all majors is the junior seminar. This course, which teaches methodological skills, should be taken during the junior year.
Enrollment is restricted to history majors.
Students may select from AFH 3930, AMH 3030, ASH 3930, HIS 3930 or LAH 3930. The junior seminar counts toward this distribution requirement. Students should balance their general and specialized courses. Students should take four to six courses in a geographi-cal, chronological or thematic concentration and seek electives that complement this concentration. Students should consult a department adviser if they have questions about the area of concentration.
