The History Department provides forty distinct undergraduate courses annually. These include both lecture-based classes and small-group seminars, spanning two millennia of human history across Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Faculty explore these regions through multiple lenses: Cultural, Economic, Environmental, Ethnic, Gender, Intellectual, Labor, Political, Social, and Urban history. The undergraduate program is designed to promote broad understanding while enabling students to specialize in their areas of interest. Students must complete at least one course in each of four thematic categories: Knowledge & Belief, Power & Conflict, Pre-Modern Studies, and Race & Difference. The geographic requirement of two courses (focusing primarily on Africa, Asia, Latin America, or the Middle East) can be fulfilled simultaneously with thematic requirements.

Qualification Requirements

Academic record is evaluated within the context of your educational system and school curriculum. Your academic record should include any available internal grades from classes, achieved marks from external exams (for example: (I)GCSE, British A-Level, International Baccalaureate, national leaving exams such as Std X/Std XII in India), or a combination of both.

If English is not your native language and you are attending a school where English is not the language of instruction, you must take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), the International English Language Testing System Academic (IELTS Academic) or the Pearson Test of English Academic (PTE Academic). You are not required to take the TOEFL, IELTS or PTE Academic if English is your native language or if you have spent at least three years at a secondary school where English is the primary language of instruction.
