Courses Offered By AU Abroad That Will Count Towards The Requirements For The History Major/Minor

The following courses offered by the AU ABROAD Program will count as stipulated towards fulfilling specific requirements for both the major and the minor in the department of history. All can be counted as elective courses for both the major and the minor. History courses offered by other study abroad programs may be accepted for credit in history, depending on how and by whom they are taught. If you are planning to go abroad in a non-AU World Capitals program and plan to take history courses, it is important that you check with the History Department in advance of going abroad.
