When history is offered as one of the required studies in the general course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts (see page 60), the requirement must be satisfied by a continuous three-credit course extending through two semesters.

The courses in history are d ivided into three groups: (a) Courses numbered under 100 carry only undergraduate credit. The introductory courses 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10 (see details below) are the courses open to freshmen. (b) Courses numbered in the tOO-series continue in the direction of greater specialization the work begun in the intro-ductory courses; they may be elected by students who have the necessary preparation. (c) Courses numbered above 200 are open only to graduate students.

MAJOR FIELDS Of CONCENTRATION. (a) European History. (b) American History. (c) History of Culture. (d) Hispanic Studies (See page 48-SO).

Students with a major in Social Sciences electing to work in history will elect one of these fields of concentration, and offer not less than 32 nor more than 40 credits in history, including History 2 or 3b,* or 138 or 139, one other introductory course (His-tory 1, 3,* 5, or 10) , History 4 (6 credits), and at least 16 credits in advanced history courses taken in residence at the University of Wisconsin, of which 10 must be con-fined to European history or American history, except as specified below for Field of Concentration (c).

Field of Concentration (c) requires either (I) History 1 or S (4 or 6 credits) , History 10 ( 4 or 6 credits), and History 2 ( 4 or 6 credits) or History 4 (6 credits) ; or (II) Histor~ 3 (10 credits) and Hist~r~ 10 (4 credits) o r History 4 (6 credits), and advanced h1story courses up to the nu111mum of 32 credits. It also requires an at-tainment examination in Latin and in one modern language, and contemplates a super-vised selection of courses in non-historical subjects within the field of concentration. It is preferable for majors in this field to select their major in their sophomore year.

Of the 16 credits in advanced courses, 2 credits in each semester of the senior year may, in the j udgment of the adviser, be assigned to the preparation of a thesis (His-tory 100-A) or a thesis course (History 100-B) in the field of concentration. In ad-dition to the courses in history, the major in Fields of Concentration (a) and (b) re-

• Students who take History 3 cannot elect History 1 or 2.

HISTORY 141

quires Economics 1a and Political Science 1 or 7; and Sociology 110 (Pre-History) and Geography 1-2 are strongly recommended.

A major in Social Sciences who elects (a), (b), or (c) as his field of concentration may be admitted to advanced independent work at the beginning of his junior year provided that (1) he has a 2.S grade-point average for his first two years; (2) he has completed the required freshman and sophomore work in history; and (3) he is recommended fo r independent work by three of his sophomore instructors of whom one must be a member of the Department of History.
