Independent Study

A student who wishes to work on a project with a faculty member may ask that instructor to supervise an Independent Study (HI 496). A detailed plan of study, drawn up by the instructor and the student, is required. Ordinarily faculty members do not supervise Independent Studies on topics covered in regularly scheduled classes.

Foreign Language

History students are required to develop competence in one or more foreign languages and to use this competence in their historical reading and research. Knowledge of a foreign language is particularly important for students planning graduate work.
