Notes:

  • 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). See "Areas of Concentration in History" in the Field of History in 4.34.
  • History Students are advised to take History 300 during their second year and must do so before taking any 500-level courses.
  • 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.
  • The Department recommends that all History majors complete one full-course equivalent at the 200 level.
