The History Minor at Ohio State
(Effective September 24, 2008)
The Minor in History is designed to provide a student with substantial
understanding of the human past. The Minor consists of 25 credit
hours taken at the 200-level and above.
Of the 25 credit hours required for the History Minor:
- History courses taken at the 100-level do NOT count toward the minor
requirements.
- 5 credit hours may be counted from GEC Historical Studies courses
taken at the 200-level and above.
- A grade of C- is permitted in courses comprising the Minor, except
for History 398 which students must pass with a minimum grade of a
C to complete a Minor in History. Students should take History 398 as
soon as possible after completing the GEC Historical Studies requirement.
- Students are encouraged to take courses that focus on a particular
theme, time period, or geographic region. Students are also encouraged
to consult with a minor adviser when preparing their minor.
All proposals for an Undergraduate Minor Program in History must be submitted
in writing to the Undergraduate History Office and approved by that office.
