[Histmaj] History Course Offerings in Spring 2025!

[HISTORY UNDERGRADUATE ADVISORS via Histmaj]

Good morning-

I have attached a list of History department courses offered in Spring 2025.  If you haven't noticed, registration starts very soon, as early as Thursday, February 13th, for Spring quarter.

You may also be able to find fuller "syllabus" style descriptions of History classes on the department website here:
https://history.washington.edu/courses/2025/spring/all
If you are working on one of the thematic majors in History, the list of courses that count for those themes are at the bottom of each paragraph on this page:
https://history.washington.edu/thematic-major-options
The classes that count as "pre-modern" or "modern" (and some that count as neither) are noted at the bottom of the attached handout, but also on this department webpage:
https://history.washington.edu/approved-courses-history-major

And as always, remember that you can drop in, call, email, or set up an appointment with the links and information on the History Advising webpage, here:

Sincerely,

Mark and Tracy
