Minor

Students in History Minor plan complete 24.0-units of History courses. In addition to the mandatory 6.0-units lectures in the first year, Minors complete six 3.0-unit lecture courses from the second to the fourth year. Minor students are not able to enroll in seminar courses, and neither are they able to choose from the experiential learning options and independent research opportunities. History Minors are often enrolled in a Major plan in a cognate department, such as English, Classics, Politics, Philosophy, or Global Development Studies, but it is not uncommon for students in other plans to Minor in History. A History Minor complements a degree in a different discipline by providing historical context to their core discipline of study. Many of our students enrolled in a Minor plan event decide to pursue a Double Major in History and another discipline in order to take advantage of the upper-year seminars and other learning opportunities that are usually reserved for Major students. The details of the History Minor plan can be found below.
