HIST 2011 - World History I: From the Dawn of Humanity to ca. 1300 CE This survey of world history from the beginning of human existence through ca. 1300 CE focuses on the emergence and development of societies in major areas of the world: West, South, and East Asia; North and Sub-Saharan Africa; the northern Mediterranean; Europe, and North and South America. This is neither a comprehensive history of the world nor a traditional overview of world civilizations. More sophisticated than the 1000-level Introduction to World Civilizations course designed for all majors, this course is designed to hone the History major’s skills of critical thinking and broad analysis by examining political, economic, military, social, and religious interactions throughout early world history. The first semester of a two-semester survey required of all History majors ideally during their first freshman semester or during the earliest possible semester for newly declared majors or transfer students.
Prerequisite: History major or minor. Credit(s): 4 Course Attribute(s):
- Social Perspectives and Intercultural Interconnecting Perspectives course for the Dialogues.
- This course is a writing-enhanced course.
