History is the study and interpretation of human society as it changes over time. It addresses questions of human identity and the origins of civilizations and society. History strives to study all past human experience, bringing to the task the full range of methodological and analytical tools. In the process, historians do many things. They compile, analyze, and compare statistics on everything from literacy to poverty. They scrutinize novels, diaries, letters, and photographs to reconstruct what life was like for people in other times and places. They weave individual lives and artifacts into narratives and descriptions of change and continuity in human societies.

The study of history helps us to understand and grapple with complex questions and pressing dilemmas by forcing us to consider how the past continues to shape relationships between people and between societies in the present.

The department offers valuable information online. The Web site includes information about the department, faculty and staff, history courses (including syllabi and past exams), undergraduate and graduate studies, history student organizations, funding, and employment.

Requirements for the Major*

Return to Top

To be accepted as a major in the Department of History the student must meet with the departmental undergraduate advisor to complete the declaration form, preferably at least one year before the student intends to graduate. A minimum of 30 credits in History is required to complete the major. Additional requirements are:

  1. Breadth requirement: At least one course in United States history, one course in European history, and one course in Non-Western/Third-World history (Africa, Asia, or Latin America). At least one of these three required courses must deal with the history of Europe and/or the Mediterranean before A.D. 1500 or with the history of Africa or Asia before these areas fell heavily under European influence. No seminar or thesis course may be used to satisfy this requirement.

  2. Concentration requirement: A concentration is a group of History courses with a common intellectual theme. Students must take at least four courses in one of the following concentrations: Europe (with at least one course on European history at the 100-level, not including 124); United States; The Americas; Africa and the African Diaspora; Middle East, North Africa, Central Asia, and South Asia; Pacific Worlds; Ancient and Medieval Worlds; Early Modern Worlds; Modern Worlds; Imperialism, Colonialism, and Postcolonialism; History of Ideas; or Social History. Some "topics" courses and seminars can be used to satisfy this requirement; please consult the undergraduate advisor.

  3. At least one advanced research-oriented seminar: History 481, History 482, or History 600. Students who are eligible to take graduate-level courses (i.e., senior standing or junior standing in the L&S Honors Program, a minimum 3.5 grade point average, and instructor's consent) may use a graduate seminar in History (700-999) to satisfy this requirement.

  4. All students must fulfill the L&S requirement of at least 15 credits in upper-level work in the major completed in residence. Students may fulfill this requirement with any of the History courses designated as "intermediate" or "advanced."

*Please check with the history undergraduate advisor regarding current requirements for the major.

Courses are grouped below according to the major requirements that they fulfill. No list can be either complete or definitive; questions about "topics" courses and seminars should be directed to the undergraduate advisor.
