This course introduces students to key themes in United States history from the late nineteenth century to the early twenty-first century. In particular, we will examine how war, migration, and struggles over race, gender, and industrial
capitalism shaped modern American politics and society. We will also explore the United States' emergence as a global superpower and the implications of this development for world history. (Gen. Ed. HS)

The Commonwealth Honors College thesis or project is intended to provide students with the opportunity to work closely with faculty members to define and carry out in-depth research or creative endeavors. It provides excellent preparation for students who intend to continue their education through graduate study or begin their professional careers. The student works closely with their 499Y Honors Research sponsor to pursue research on a topic or question of special interest to them in preparation for writing a 499T Honors Thesis or completing a 499P Honors Project.
