Course Offerings

All courses, both introductory and advanced, are open to all students, without prerequisites unless otherwise noted. Introductory courses are designed to provide overviews of themes that often transcend national barriers or cover significant periods of time. Advanced courses offer more in-depth study of each topic.

Course numbers in parentheses (e.g., "Hi 4") indicate old course numbers used by the College before it switched over to a new numbering system with the Jenzabar administrative software.
