Requirements of the Major | Department of History

All majors must write either a 1-semester or 2-semester senior essay. The 2-semester senior essay is a requirement for receiving distinction in the History major. The 1-semester option is for students who do not intend to receive distinction in the major. Students who choose this second option will be required to take 11 rather than 12 credits to complete the history major. This option is particularly appealing to double majors.
