Major Info and Notes
University Advisors
- Meet with a history department advisor if you have not done so already. Email history@csuohio.edu for assistance scheduling an appointment.
- CSUTeach students meet with Courtney Glover https://levin.csuohio.edu/essc/meet-our-academic-advisors
- Meet with Mark Wirtz, your College of Arts & Sciences Advisor https://artsandsciences.csuohio.edu/casstudentservice/advising
Scheduling Tips
- Register for HIS 200 before it fills. This is a required course for Social Studies majors. If you have questions about when to register, please ask an advisor.
- Be sure to take HIS 299: Introduction to Historical Studies early in your career at CSU. It provides foundational skills for your major and is a prerequisite for HIS 401.
- AVOID taking HIS 401 with AT II. Meet with your history department advisor to plan accordingly.
