HISTORY PROGRAM

History has been defined as the “memory of human group experience” because it brings the student into contact with the whole range of human effort and achievement. Its object is to recreate the past from the evidence left to us, and to try to explain how and why human beings spoke, acted, and thought as they did in the past. Although history must always deal with the “facts” of societies, it is even more concerned with explaining and illuminating them.

The program is centred broadly on the history of “Atlantic Civilization”—the historical development of Europe and the Americas. The courses aim to provide both a broad exposure to the history of the Atlantic World, and more specialized work in the history of various regions and countries. The Department also offers courses in the practice and the craft of history.

2000-level courses provide introductions to the histories of civilizations, regions, and countries, especially in the areas listed above. They are intended to build upon the skills acquired in first year History courses.

3000-level courses provide more specialized studies in a number of areas.

4000-level courses are usually seminars emphasizing discussion and research in more specialized areas.

While providing courses for students in all faculties, schools, and departments, the Department also provides a minor, major, and honours program for those who have a special interest in the study of history.

MAJOR PROGRAM

To register as a major in History, a student must complete History 1010/1020 and six semester hours (2 courses) at the 2000 level. Students are urged to take History 2010/2020 in the first or second year to satisfy the second requirement. Students may take additional 2000-level courses.

History 1010/1020, 2010/2020, 2110, and 3120 are compulsory for students in the major program.

History 1010/1020, 2010/2020, and 2110 should be completed by the end of the fourth semester.

History 3120 should be completed no later than the end of the sixth semester.

A major program is complete when a student has successfully completed a minimum of 42 hours of credit in History (14 courses) of which a minimum of 9 hours (3 courses) must be at the 3000 level, and 9 hours (3 courses) must be at the 4000 level. Majors must complete courses totalling 6 semester hours of credit at the 2000-4000 levels in one of the following areas of study: Europe, Britain, the USA, and Global.  (NOTE: As per Academic Regulation #1 h), all undergraduate degree programs require successful completion of IKE-1040, one of UPEI-1010, 1020 or 1030, and a Writing Intensive Course.)   

HONOURS PROGRAM

To be admitted to the Honours program, the student must submit a letter of application to the Honours Coordinator. Applicants must be registered in, or have completed, the major program. Applications are normally submitted during the fourth or fifth semester. Decisions on admission are made by the department acting as a committee of the whole. Admissions decisions will be made on the basis of demonstrated and potential ability to carry out independent research and sustained historical analysis. Meeting the minimum entry requirements does not guarantee admission.

Applicants normally must have a CGPA of 3.0 in all previous University courses. Normally, the Department expects an average of at least 80% in all previous history courses.

In addition to the courses required for the major, honours students are required to complete History 4970 and 4980.

Each honours student must prepare a graduating honours essay under the direction of a supervisor. This essay will be evaluated by a three-person committee, two members from within the Department and one member of which will be from outside the Department.

The candidate must take a final oral examination on the essay.

Students intending to enter graduate programs should be aware that many such programs require a reading knowledge of a second language. Undergraduate courses in a second language are a useful preparation for graduate work in history.

An Honours program is complete when the student completes:
1. a total of 120 semester hours of course credits with a mini- mum overall average of 75%;
2. a total of 48 semester hours of course credits in History (6 semester hours in addition to the minimum required for the major), with a minimum average of 75%.  (NOTE: As per Academic Regulation #1 h), all undergraduate degree programs require successful completion of IKE-1040, one of UPEI-1010, 1020 or 1030, and a Writing Intensive Course.)

Of such courses, students can apply 6 hours (2 courses) taken at the 1000 or 2000 levels and 6 hours (2 courses) at the 3000 or 4000 levels.

Instead of regular lectures, in each class students work through a series of carefully selected readings which forms the basis for interactive discussions. Each year, the seminar is devoted to a different historical issue, and is led by a different professor from the History Department.
