    • 3 credit hours may be taken at the 4000 level if the course is outside of History
  • A written comprehensive exam in the major field, followed by an oral exam

Students pursuing the course-based MA must be competent in at least three areas of historical study. Two of these are classified as minor fields and include the Ancillary. From the major field 12 credit hours are normally chosen. At least one of these courses must be a research course.
