10/30/2015 History Department Courses Spring 2016 Major Requirements 6 credits of history core (HIST1001­1109): 3 credits in each half of sequence Plus at least 30 credits, including: 6 credits of U.S. History Survey (HIST2401­2402); 3 credits of The Study and Writing of History (HIST3001­3899); at least 6 credits of non­Western history; and at least 12 credits of upper­division history electives (courses numbered HIST4001 and higher) For all students except those writing a senior Honors thesis, 3 of these upper­division credits must come in the form of a senior colloquium (HIST5001­5499). Note: Students may not take evening courses for major credit. The department may give permission to take summer courses to fulfill major requirements, but summer courses cannot take the place of upper­division electives. A maximum of 12 credits, and no more than 6 upper­division credits, may be earned abroad. At least 18 of the required 30 credits beyond the core (including The Study and Writing of History) must be taken at Boston College during the regular academic year (i.e., during the fall or spring semester). A maximum of 2 Readings and Research courses (HIST4901) may be substituted for upper­division electives. Non­Western courses numbered HIST4001­4199 and HIST4301­4399) are also upper­division courses and can be used to fulfill both requirements (non­Western and upper­division). However, the credits for each such course only count once toward the 30 credits required to complete the major. A three­credit course represents three (not six) of those 30 credits, even if it counts toward both non­Western and upper­division requirements. If you have questions about how your audit treats major courses, see Colleen O’Reilly, Stokes South, 301­A.
