The Minor in History is designed to address the needs of students in other fields who wish to gain a broad base in the humanities and social sciences by incorporating historical perspectives into their majors and thus enhance their ability to reach higher levels of achievement in their own professional specialization.

The curriculum consists of 18 credits in History. Students minoring in History must meet these requirements:

  1. At least one course, at either the introductory or advanced level, must be taken in each of the following areas of concentration: American, European, and Global
  2. At least three courses at the 300 or 400-level
  3. Minors must earn at least a C- in all 300 to 400-level History courses.
  4. Minors are encouraged (but not required) to take HIST 05306 Historical Methods-WI  

Students pursuing the minor should plan their courses in collaboration with a Department of History advisor in addition to an advisor from their major.
