Undergraduate Coordinator: A. M. Burns Graduate Coordinator: C. J. Summerville Office: Turlington 4131 (392-0271) ADMISSION TO THE MAJOR: The history major is a restricted access program; a GPA of 2.5 is required for admission. The department may admit some students who show promise in history though they may not meet this minimum standard. THE MAJOR: Students majoring in history must complete a minimum of 33 semester hours. They are required to take at least two courses in American History (AMH), two in European History (EUH), and two in areas outside United States and European History (i.e., courses designated ASH, AFH, or LAH; WOH courses do not meet this requirement). Students are required to take one Junior Seminar. This course must be taken in the junior year and must be selected from among AFH 3930, AMH 3930, ASH 3930, EUH 3930, HIS 3930, or LAH 3930. These seminars are restricted to history majors only and do count toward distribution requirements. Students are also required to complete a minimum of 15 credits at the 3000 or 4000 level; transfer students must take a minimum of 18 credits at the University of Florida. Prospective majors should consult a departmen- tal adviser as early as possible, especially with regard to possible areas of concentration, such as business and labor history, military history, the history of ideas, social history, and ethnic and minority history. Majors wishing to concentrate in the History of Sci- ence, Technology, and Medicine should consult the section in the catalog immediately following the histo- ry course offerings. Each student is required to have a graduation interview with an undergraduate adviser during his or her final semester. While allowing much freedom to the individual student in shaping the major, the Department of History does urge that careful consideration be given to the range of subjects studied. The aim should be for a balance between diversification and specialization. It is assumed that a student will want to concentrate eventually on a particular area of history; indeed, without careful and detailed examination, it is not possible to appreciate the complexities of the histori- cal process and the difficulties of interpretation. Conversely, the close study of a single culture will given students a narrow and provincial view, without the comparative knowledge drawn from an acquain- tance with other periods and societies. One cannot understand the development of any one society in iso- lation from others. HISTORY OF SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND MEDICINE: Students wishing to concentrate in histo- ry of science, technology and medicine must meet the following requirements: 1) a minimum of 33 hours in history including HIS 3930 and 6 hours in courses with a prefix of either AMH or EUH. 18 hours must be taken in history of science, technology and medicine, including at least one course in history of technology, or history of medicine. The following courses also meet the history of science requirement: IDS 2190 (Ascent of Man), AST 2039 (Exploration of the Universe), AST 2046 (History of Astronomy), LIT 4903 (Literature of Science), AST 5043 (History of Astronomy), PSC 3901 (Men and Concepts), PSY 5605 (History of Psychology), MHF 4404 (History of Mathematics); 2) 8 hours of science and mathematics beyond the general education requirement, including at least 8 hours of courses at the junior or senior level that are required of majors in a given scientific discipline. HONORS: Candidates for honors must have a minimum upper division GPA of 3.5. For high or highest honors, there is a requirement of an acceptable senior thesis (HIS 4970). Application to undertake the project should be made to the Undergraduate Coordinator by the student and the faculty director involved at least two semesters before graduation. A departmental Honors Committee shall evaluate the thesis for high or highest honors and, in exceptional cases, may recommend to the Dean that highest hon- ors be conferred. THE MINOR: A minor in history consists of a minimum of 15 credits, at least 12 of which must be at the 3000 or 4000 level. Individual study courses are not acceptable for minor credit, and transfer students who wish to minor in history must take at least 9 hours of history at the University of Florida. OVERSEAS STUDY: The department regularly conducts a summer seminar at Cambridge University in England. The program provides 9 credits at the 3000 level, meets UF summer residency requirements and applies to the Gordon rule. The six week seminar varies in content; among past topics: England in Crisis: The Age of Shakespeare; Victorian Britain; Britain in the 20th Century. For further information contact the departmental office or the Overseas Study office, 123 Tigert. GENERAL EDUCATION: Many history courses carry general education credit. The capital letters that follow course titles (in parentheses) identify the gener- al education category or categories for which these courses carry credit: L = Literature and the Arts; H = Historical and Philosophical Studies; I = International Studies; S = Social Sciences. African History AFH 2003 Africa in World History. Credits: 3 A one-semester introduction to African history for undergraduates. By focusing upon major historical themes, this course will enable students to link the history of African societies with other world civiliza- tions. (H, I) AFH 3100 Africa to 1800. Credits: 3 Ancient Africa, the expansion of Islam, savannah kingdoms, East African trading cities, maritime con- tacts with Europe, the slave trade. (H, I) AFH 3200 Africa Since 1800. Credits: 3 The end of the slave trade and the growth of "legiti- mate" commerce; Islamic renewal and revolution; the European partition and the colonial era; the growth of nationalism and the reemergence of independent Africa. (H, I) tt Grading is on S-U basis only.
