HIST 111 - World History I, Honors (SB)

3 Credits
Three hours per week.

These two courses are a survey of the development and spread of civilization from ancient times to the present day. They adopt a global perspective of history, while at the same time attempting to do justice to the distinctive character and recent development of individual civilizations and regions in the world. They also provide the student the opportunity for extensive reading, critical thinking, research and writing experiences, and for the application of knowledge and skills to problems and issues in contemporary society. Only one of these two courses is required of students in the University Honors Program to satisfy General Education Requirements; they are open to other students with departmental permission or (for HIST 112) an “A” in HIST 101.

Offered (FALL/SPRING).
