ANTH 238: Urban Anthropology or ANTH 307: Medical Anthropology can
fulfill both the GE-Intercultural N. American Requirement and a Global Issues
Requirement.
The following courses fulfill both the General Education Topics in Social
Science Requirement and a Global Issues Requirement:
a. ANTH 235: Religion: Cross-Cultural Perspective
b. POLI 360: Conflict Resolution
The ONLY two courses that fulfill the Global Issues Requirement as well as a
HIST elective are HIST 329: Paradigms of Genocide and HIST 394: War, Peace
& Conflict Resolution
All Area Studies Concentrations have three or more available options to
double-count as HIST Electives EXCEPT Latin America. Latin American
concentrations MUST substitute a “Free elective” for an additional HIST
Elective, as only two HIST courses can fulfill a Latin America Area Studies
requirement.
