In addition to the core requirements for the History Major, European History Majors take six courses in European History.  One of those six must be an upper-level seminar numbered HIST 2200-2299 or HIST 3200-3299. Students should consult with their faculty advisor each semester during pre-registration regarding the best courses for them to take the following semester. Two major-related courses from other departments (ex. ARTH, ENGL, PSCI) may be used, and these must be approved in writing by your faculty advisor.

Note: European History Majors graduating in the Class of '22 and earlier must take 4 upper-level courses (HIST 200 and above).
