Dc. .r':mcnt of History

Head: A.B. Cunningham

Course Requirements in First Four Semesters

The Department offers courses in three streams of study, namely,

American History (Canadian, U.S.A., Latin American), Colonial and Imperial

history (with special reference, for the present, to Africa arid the Middle

East) and European history (for the present, Great Britain, France, Germany,

Russia). Students intending either a Major or Honors program in History are

expected to select their courses from at least two of these streams, and must

meet the following requirements before entering Junior studies; these begin in

the 5th or 6th semester, and ordinarily in the students' third year.

Grade 12 Students must obtain credit in their first two se..-,..es-

ters for three 100-level courses, including 101, and in their third and fourth-

semesters for four 2001ava1 courses. Students wishing to take any 100-level

course work after their second semester at University must obtain Departmental

peraission, and must obtain at least B standing in the relevant semester exam-

ination.

Grade 13 Students can

. exempt themselves from 101 only by passing

an examination on 20th Century History at the commencement of their university

prograa. Otharwise, they are required to obtain credit for four 200-level courses.

In some instances, students may be allowed or required to substitute a 100-level

course for a 200-level course, and in such cases a B standing will be the accep-

table

in the re.Lavaut examjnaton.
