The Department of History and Anthropology offers joint history degree programs at both the undergraduate and graduate levels in collaboration with other departments and schools of the university.
For undergraduate students, we offer a five-year joint B.A./M.A. in History; a six-year joint B.A./J.D. program with the law school; and a five-year B.A./M.S.L.S. program with the Department of Information Sciences.
Undergraduate students interested in these programs must be aware that course planning for them must begin very early in their undergraduate careers and applications are required. Contact the department's Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUGS) in History, Dr. Samuel Fisher, for more details.
For graduate students, the Department partners with the Department of Information Sciences to offer a combined M.A./M.S.L.I.S. joint degree program, and with the Columbus School of Law to offer a combined M.A./J.D. degree program. Contact the department's Director of Graduate Studies (DUGS) in History, Dr. Jennifer Davis, for more details.
