The Undergraduate Program

The Department of History offers programs of study leading to the BA degree and the BA degree with honors. Non-majors are welcome in all history courses, including those in our variety of clusters.

The range of undergraduate courses is wide, incorporating social, economic, intellectual, cultural, political, and psychological approaches to historical problems and periods. Most 100- and 200-level courses in the Department are accessible to students of all backgrounds and interests. In addition, the faculty offer 300-level seminars and courses designed for concentrators or other students who want to explore more specialized history subjects.

Students concentrating in history will each have a faculty adviser (click on "Advisers" for more information). Advisers are a resource for information on courses, on making changes to a program of study, on special opportunities in the major and on opportunities for further study and work after graduation. See also "Honors Program" and "Internships and Careers" to learn more.
