NOTE: Three courses in your POE must cover topics that are based outside the US and Europe.  IC 202: The Shaping of the American Mind may be listed as part of the designated history POE:  Other courses may be considered by petition to the history department

At least 3 of the above courses must address history of a region that is neither Europe nor the United States. See the department for a complete list of courses that fulfill the non-western requirement.  At least 2 of your history courses must be writing based, with one at the 300 level or above.

Because the History & Art History Department believes that all seniors should participate in a capstone experience, students who have history as part of their POEs should plan to participate either in HS 493, the history department’s senior seminar, or in a similar experience in another department. Each student should consult his or her History Department advisor regarding what activities will fulfill this requirement.

POE Credit Total = 48-51

Students must complete at least 18 credits at the 300/400-level.  Any course exception must be approved by the advisor and/or department chair.
