Undergraduate Courses

Gateway Seminars: introduce undergraduates to the ways historians do their work. The seminars build skills in researching and writing history, and introduce historiography. Although students often take gateways as a sophomore majors, the courses also provide a great way for prospective students to explore the major.

Capstone Seminars: allow students to draw on everything they have learned in the major and to write an original research paper (generally 25 pages or more) based on their own historical research. Capstones are generally taken in the junior or senior years.

Pre-1800: count towards the pre-modern course requirement for the major. Courses must have a substantial portion of the class deal with the period before the nineteenth century.

Graduate Courses

Readings Colloquia: provide breadth and depth in graduate student study during the first two years before individualized study towards dissertation proposals.

Research Seminars: broadly framed around general topics in history, these courses help graduate students refine individual research agendas.
