B.S./B.A. in History

Core Curriculum

The online bachelor’s in history requires a core of courses including lower- and upper-division courses. Lower-division courses require credit hours focusing on U.S. and world history.

For the upper-division courses, choose at least two courses from each group: U.S. history, European/world history and Western/comparative/thematic history. Earn your B.A. with a foreign language requirement, or your B.S. with just 12 more science credits.

The program culminates with three course requirements: investigating the past, historical research/methods and a thesis/capstone project mentored by a faculty member.
