Total Credits Required To Earn This Credential
Complete the following lower-division survey course requirements in sections A, B and C with a grade of C or better in each class, for a total of 12 credits
NOTE: course American History cannot be applied toward requirements for the history major or minor.
Students take their remaining 18 credits in 3000- and 4000-level history courses (with a grade of C or better in each class). The upper-division classes provide a more focused, detailed and rigorous examination of historical periods and themes.
Any course with a HIST prefix at 3000 or above is acceptable as an elective. No more than 3 credits of course Directed Readings may be applied toward the major.
Since the study of history requires an understanding of many fields of human behavior, students majoring in history must select a minor. These may include related disciplines such as religious studies, literature, economics, geography, anthropology, political science, sociology, classics, philosophy, and foreign languages, or students may choose a minor in any other program on campus.
Total elective credit is determined by General Education courses taken, degree type selected, additional credits earned, and any additional math or other prerequisite courses needed. Please consult your Academic Advisor for details.
