LevelBachelors Program
  • Students who complete the major in History will be able to:
    • Think critically about the relationship between historical evidence and arguments.
    • Challenge and revise existing narratives of the past, both to comprehend the events they describe and to shed light on society’s evolving needs and concerns.
    • Question their own ideas and assumptions, and reflect on the often hidden relationships between ideas and social institutions, and between individuals and their cultures.
    • Analyze texts, documents, and oral historical materials, and assess the uses made of these materials by other historians.
    • Frame research questions, conduct independent research, and write persuasively.
  • The requirements for the history major encourage students to develop these capacities by studying the history of a particular region or historical topic in depth and by ranging more widely so as to fulfill geographical and chronological breadth requirements.
  • Majors will demonstrate their mastery of history by successfully completing nine history courses that include the following:
    • Four courses in an individually chosen area of concentration
    • One course each in at least three different geographic areas
