History Capstone Seminar

The greatest pleasure of history is doing it yourself.  In this capstone course, you will have the freedom to research and present the topic of most interest to you — with the benefit of step-by-step faculty guidance, a supportive peer community, and outside expertise.  Using skills you’ve acquired in the history major, you’ll create an original work of scholarship in the form of a research paper, a lesson plan, an online museum exhibit, et cetera — whatever format is most usefully related to your future career plans.
