During their initial two years, students enroll in a 30-unit core colloquium focused on American historiography, typically completing one 5-unit course each quarter across six quarters. Research seminars span two quarters, allowing students to participate in one seminar during their first year and another in their second year. Secondary field requirements must be fulfilled by the conclusion of the second year. The department anticipates that most graduate students will take between four to six years to finish their Ph.D. requirements. The duration may vary depending on students' undergraduate background and the specific language and research demands of their chosen Major fields.
