History (M.A.)


Master’s degree requirements


The Master of Arts in History requires a minimum of 30 hours beyond the baccalaureate degree, and the program offers three options: 24 hours of course work plus a thesis (6 research hours); 28 hours of course work plus a report (2 research hours); or 30 hours of course work. All candidates for the M.A. must take a course in historiography. Those who write a thesis or report must take two seminars or topics courses and pass an oral or written final examination that centers on the student’s research. Those who take the nonthesis, nonreport degree must take three seminars or topics courses and pass a written final examination over their coursework.
