Format

The College of Arts and Sciences offers comprehensive online degrees to fit your busy schedule. Using the latest technologies, we put history courses within reach of students who are not able to attend classes on campus or commit to full-time, face-to-face enrollment due to the time constraints of working full-time or raising a family.

 

Curriculum

The history B.A. requires a total of 120 credit hours. Along with basic general education and Arts and Sciences requirements, history students take two survey courses in world, western, or eastern civilizations, a methods course titled “Introduction to the Study of History,” thirty hours of upper-division history courses, twelve hours of upper-division courses in related humanities or social sciences fields, and a senior research seminar or project. The flexibility of the degree allows students to complete a minor or a second major often without additional hours.
