TRANSNATIONAL AMERICAN HISTORY

Catalog description

This six-credit course combines the material from the two U.S. histroy surveys (HIST 111 and HIST 112) as well as elements of the second half of the World history survey (HIST 102) into a single course and examines that history in a "transnational" fashion. That is, it looks at American history in a global context. In some cases, that means events in America at certain times paralleled events in other places. In other instances, the course will look at how events in American history were shaped by broader international developments and vice versa. Pre-requisite: Sophomore status or higher; or permission of instructor.
