Global and Historical Studies

 
 
 

An Overview

Change and Tradition (C&T) has now been integrated into “Global and Historical Studies” (GHS), in which students have a much broader choice of courses to fulfill that part of their core curriculum requirement.

Beginning In the Fall of 2008, sophomores can choose from up to nine different GHS courses, depending on the semester.(click on Course Information for more details about each of these courses).

These new courses include:

  • CC201- "South Asian Civilization"
  • CC202- "Postcolonial Studies"
  • CC203- "Modernizing and Contemporary Europe"
  • CC204- "Frontiers in Latin America"
  • CC205- "East Asian Interactions"
  • CC206- "Resistance and Reaction: Colonialism and Postcolonialism in Africa"
  • CC207- "Rights and Resistance: Global Women
  • CC208- "Change and Tradition in China and the Islamic Middle East"
  • CC209-"Change and Tradition in Revolutionary Europe and Nigeria"

To fulfill either the old C&T requirement or the new GHS requirement of the core, students may take any two of this array of GHS courses. Those who have already taken one semester of C&T (ID201 or 202) need take only one more of these new courses. Students can not fulfill the 6-hour requirement with both ID202 and the new “Contemporary Europe” class (CC 203) due to an overlap in the material.
