Introduction

All students considering History are advised to take two half courses at the 200-level in History. Students will be made familiar with the methods, approaches and background necessary for senior level courses.

The Department has a number of undergraduate advisors who will be available to consult with students about their program.

Admission

See 3.1 Admissions.

Requirements

History majors must fulfill the following requirements.

Successful completion of seven to ten full-course equivalents in History. These courses must include:

(a) Three full-course equivalents from a "primary area of concentration".

(b) One and one-half full-course equivalents from a "secondary area of concentration".

Note: Students will normally select these areas of concentration from the following: Canada, Europe, Latin America, Military-Diplomatic, United States, and World (including Asia and Africa), and Religious. See "Areas of Concentration in History".

(c) One full-course equivalent in Canadian History.

(d) At least one full-course equivalent at the 500-level (History 591 may not be used to fulfill this requirement without the prior written consent of the Department).

Note: Students are strongly advised not to wait until their last year to fulfill their 500-level course requirement, since enrolment in these courses is limited.

(e) Sufficient courses to bring the total number of History courses to at least seven full-course equivalents.

Note: The Department recommends that all History majors complete one full-course equivalent at the 200-level.

Note: Students may select a maximum of one full-course equivalent from Greek and Roman Studies 337, 339, 345, and 347.
