History minor
Minor
Historians study change over time, examining all aspects of human experience. Historical work often draws on the social sciences, and literature and the arts. The foundation requirements in the history minor provide students with an overview of the field and the core principles of the Global and Historical Knowledge Perspective, with additional courses providing in-depth study of specific topics within American History, World History, or related fields.
This Knowledge Perspective course will provide students with the opportunity to interpret and analyze the complex interrelationships and inequities in human societies in a global historical context. Emphasizing the interrelatedness and mutuality of influence between East and West, we examine questions of exclusiveness, intolerance, and cooperation.
