The history department offers a wide variety of courses. Survey courses (HIST 101, 102, 201, 202) are offered every semester. HIST 121 is offered every fall; HIST 122 is offered every spring.
Upper-division courses (300 and 400 level) are offered on a rotation basis; check with the department secretary for a list of courses offered this semester.
Some courses are double-listed with a “500” denomination: they can be taken at the graduate level (the history department does not currently have a master’s program).
