Program Structure

The Department of History is committed to the University’s liberal arts curriculum approach, combining flexibility and choice in allowing students to take a number of courses in disciplines other than their chosen majors’ discipline. University guidelines require a student to complete 150 credit hours of coursework over a minimum of 3 years to graduate with an Undergraduate liberal arts degree, of which at least 108 credits must be taken in the Major discipline. The remaining credits will come from courses outside the Majors discipline.
