Are there any required courses in the History MA degree program?
The only required course is HIST 601 (Theory and Historiography), which must be completed during the first two semesters in the MA program. Students must complete at least one graduate-level history course in at least three of the department-approved geographical areas of focus (United States, Europe, Latin America, and World), and at least two graduate-level courses in at least two of these areas. Graduate students must also write two substantial research papers of 20-25 pages each, based on original, primary-source research. This requirement may be met by taking 600-level seminars or by enrolling in Directed Research (HIST 693) or Independent Study (699) under the supervision of department faculty.
