The Department of History offers a Standard Major, a Modified Major, an Honors Major, and a Minor. Most courses fall into one of four areas: (1) United States and Canada, (2) Europe, (3) Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, or (4) Interregional and Comparative. Because planning is essential, it is critical that a student establish a relationship with a faculty member who can act as an adviser. Any member of the Department can serve as a major adviser, and it is best to pursue this relationship as early as possible. If you do not know whom to approach, the Department Chair or Vice Chair will be happy to suggest a possible adviser to suit your interests. (The Vice Chair approves all modifications, double majors, and transfer credit inquiries.) Standard Major in History: The Standard Major in History comprises the successful completion of at least ten History courses that meet the following requirements: 1. Geographic Distribution Your ten History courses must include, at a minimum: one course in the history of the United States and Canada (such courses are designated Major Dist: US & CAN in the course listing below); one course in the history of Europe (designated Major Dist: EUR in the course listing below); two courses in the histories of Africa, Asia, Latin America & Caribbean (designated Major Dist: AALAC in the course listing below); one Interregional or Comparative history course (designated Major Dist: INTER in the course listing below). 2. Chronological Distribution. Your ten History courses must contain, at a minimum, two pre-1700 or three pre-1800 courses.
