What is the Second Year Research Seminar for UCI History program?
The Second Year Research Seminar (204A/B) is a two-quarter course required of all second year students. Unlike the Proseminar/Research Seminar courses, the Second Year Research Seminar does not focus on a single historical topic. Instead this course allows students to begin to plan their dissertation topics and do research in their exact field of interest. It also introduces professionalization issues such as grant writing and the publication process.
