Using a global approach to history, this course in the Freshman program is essentially a survey of political, cultural, and economic developments and achievement of humanity from pre-historic times to the present. Exercises in basic social science skills will include the development of geography skills, research skills, and the demonstration of analytical, critical, and reflective thinking skills through oral and written presentations. These skills will be implemented while examining such major themes as religions of the world, political and economic systems, causes and results of revolutions, and 20th century world conflicts.
