History Minor


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Majors, Minors, and Concentrations

In the fall of 2016, the History and Historic Preservation program will be introducing new requirements for its minor, and a range of new courses to support those requirements. (See below for the old requirements, which will still apply to some students.) The minor will consist of five courses plus a capstone course, for a total of 22 credits. Students will have to take one 100-level course, two 200-level courses, one 300-level course, and the HIS 415 /HIS 480  Tutorial/Capstone sequence, described above under the Major. Minors will also be expected to complete courses in each of three major geographic areas, the United States, Europe, and the non-Western world (Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East). Students who declare a history minor before the fall of 2016 can decide if they will follow the current requirements above, or these new ones that will come into effect in that semester.

OLD MINOR REQUIREMENTS: The minor in history is composed of one course at the 100 level and five above the 100 level, at least one of which must be at the 300 level.  At least four of the six courses required for the minor must be satisfied through classes listed or cross-listed in history.  Students with a minor in history must take at least one course in each of the following: American, European, and non-western history (including Latin American, African, Asian, and Middle Eastern).
