1. 11门必修课程必须包括以下入门课程:
- HIST 011 PZ - 1492年以来的世界
- 历史012 pz -人文科学史
- Either HIST 025 PZ – US 历史 Before 1877 or HIST 026 PZ – Modern US 历史 Since 1877.
2. 要有历史专业指导老师的同意, students may substitute one of the following courses for HIST 025 PZ/HIST 026 PZ mentioned above:
- HIST 017 CH -介绍墨西哥人和拉丁人的历史

- HIST 125aa -亚裔美国人历史简介
It is preferable that students take these required introductory courses during their first two years at the College.
3. In addition to the three introductory courses, students must also complete:
- HIST 197 PZ – The Seminar in 历史, (normally taken in the junior year or fall of the senior year).
- At least one (1) course focusing on a geographic region outside of the United States and Europe. 在匹泽商学院，满足这一要求的课程包括:
- HIST024 PZ – Colonialism in Africa; HIST 045 PZ – West African 历史 through Novels and Film; HIST 144 PZ – Death and Dying in African 历史; HIST169 PZ – Globalization and Oceania, 和HIST 170 PZ -混合身份:西班牙帝国. Certain courses offered at the other Claremont Colleges also may fulfill this requirement; students should consult with a 历史 major adviser in selecting appropriate courses.
4. 至少有一门(1)课程必须聚焦于1600年以前的时间. 在Pitzer，满足这一要求的课程包括:
- CLAS 164 PZ – Pompeii and the Cities of Vesuvius HIST 073 PZ – The Problem with Profit;HIST074 PZ – Queering the Medieval?; HIST 170 PZ – Hybrid Identities: Spanish Empire; HIST 173 PZ – Religion, 暴力与宽容, 1450–1650; HIST 175 PZ – Magic, 大西洋世界的异端与性别, 1400–1700; and HIST178 PZ Queer and Feminist Histories of Early Modern Europe, 1350–1650. Certain courses offered at the other Claremont Colleges also may fulfill this requirement; students should consult with a history major adviser in selecting appropriate courses.
5. 学生还必须选修五(5)门额外的历史课程.
6. 最后, each student is expected to develop a coherent thematic or topical focus comprised of at least three (3) courses in history; of these three courses, 至少有一项必须涉及发表一篇重要的研究论文. An asterisk before the course number indicates that the course contains a significant research component.
例如, a student might construct a thematic focus on science and the environment by taking Ecological 历史, 冷战时期喀麦隆的自然灾害, 以及近代早期世界的科学技术. Many other configurations are possible; students should consult with their history major advisers in developing appropriate thematic clusters.
While the history major does not require the study of a foreign language, students are strongly encouraged to develop language skills relevant to their thematic or topical foci. 希望攻读历史专业研究生课程的学生(美国历史专业除外).S. history) are especially urged to acquire a competence in a relevant language as early as possible.
荣誉:
总绩点等于或超过3分的学生.可获历史系提名撰写论文, 哪一个会被实地小组考虑为荣誉. Courses taken in order to write honors theses (typically HIST 199 PZ) will be counted as additions to the 11 courses required for the major.
