BA (120 credit hour) Combined Honours including History
Besides the general requirements for all BA programs, students must meet the Faculty degree requirements for Combined Honours (120 credit hours). Students must take 66 to 84 credit hours in two subjects beyond the 1000-level, with no more than 48 nor fewer than 30 credit hours in either of them. Students must complete 18 credit hours at the 3000/4000 level in both Honours subjects, and at least one three-credit hour 4000-level seminar in History.
Students must complete HIST 2700.03 (Introduction to Historical Methods).
Students will do the Honours Essay (or equivalent) in one of the Honours subjects. If you choose History as your primary subject (i.e., you take more classes in History than in your other Combined Honours subject), you will write an Honours Essay (HIST 4981/4982) and take the Honours seminar (HIST 4971/4972).
Applicants normally should have achieved an existing Grade Point Average of at least 3.3 in their History courses above the 1000 level to be considered for admission. A grade of B- or better is required in at least 30 History credit hours.
Students are required to choose at least three credit hours above the 1000 level in EACH of four categories (A, B, C and D).
