The World History requirement is intended to expose students to an area of non-Western history.

In addition to the core requirements for the History Major, World History Majors take six courses in World History.  One of those six must be a World History  seminar between numbered between HIST 2100-3799.  Students should consult with their faculty advisor each semester during pre-registration regarding the best courses for them to take the following semester. Two major-related courses from other departments (ex. ARTH, NELC, PSCI) may be used, and these must be approved in writing by your faculty advisor.

Note: World History Majors graduating in the class of '22 and earlier must take 4 upper-level courses (HIST 200 and above).
