Taught by diverse and enthusiastic instructors, our staple survey courses include
Early and Modern World History, Early and Modern Western Civilization, Early and Modern U.S. History, and Early and Modern History of the Americas. Also don’t overlook our specialized courses such as History of East Asia, History of Mexico, our popular Ancient Civilizations, and History of Women in both America and World Civilizations. Last year, the History Department is proud to launch two new specialized courses – Twentieth-Century World History (History 103) and Survey of Medieval History (History 136). This semester we are offering American History: 1945-Present (History 112) and American Military History (History 113).
