MAJORS

History plays a central role in general education for all undergraduate students. History stresses an understanding of changes that take place in society over time. It also provides a meaning to the past that has many implications for the future. Since we learn from experience, through history we can greatly broaden our learning through the experience of others, removed in time and distant in space from our immediate world. The study of history is as useful as it is fascinating. History majors develop an ability to communicate well, both orally and in writing, and the capacity to think clearly and analytically. Whatever one's goals, it makes good sense to include history in any degree program.

The History Department offers B.A. degrees in History, in History/Administrative Studies, and in History/Law and Society.

Career Opportunities

Since history stresses change over time and provides the tools for comprehending better a rapidly changing world, many of those planning graduate work find history an excellent preparation for professional schools such as law and business administration. For those planning a legal career, a strong background in Western institutions and values can be obtained in a variety of courses in the department. Those planning a career in public school teaching should be aware that the department's program has been officially approved under the Ryan Act for both the elementary (multiple-subjects) and secondary (single-subject) credential programs, which exempts graduates from the statewide examinations required in these fields. And, of course, a major in history prepares the student for graduate study in this field as well as a broad range of general careers in business, government work and foreign affairs that ask for written and verbal skills developed in the major.

History/Administrative Studies Major

The History/Administrative Studies major is designed to combine the discipline of History, with its emphasis on changes in society over time, with the study of administrative behavior, the development of public policy, and the tools of decision making. The addition of an Administrative Studies component provides History majors with analytical administrative skills as well as familiarity with the theories and policies of public administration. The concepts of organizational behavior and decision making, when combined with the perspectives provided through the History major, ought to be of particular value to those planning to enter careers in business; federal, state, or local levels of public or private administration; government work or to those planning to attend a professional school of administration or to those utilizing the major in a variety of positions in the public or private sector. (See also the History graduate program in Historic Resources Management, which outlines public sector careers in History.)

History/Law and Society Major

The History/Law and Society major is designed to offer students the opportunity to combine the study of history, with its emphasis on the changes over time in society, politics, the economy, and culture, with the study of legal and law-like relationships and institutions. The coherent series of courses included in this major ought to be of particular value to those intending to study law or to enter other graduate fields as well as to those planning professional careers in government, public administration, business, or other areas where the relationship between history and the law is of significance.

See Minors under the College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences in the Undergraduate Studies section of this catalog for additional information on minors.

Recommended Prelaw Courses

The History major has long been considered as an ideal major for students planning to study law since it meets the three goals that law schools recommend for undergraduate applicants:

  1. That they achieve an understanding of the development of social, political, and economic institutions
  2. That they develop an ability to communicate well, both orally and in writing
  3. That they possess the capacity to think clearly and analytically.

The History Department especially recommends the following upper-division courses to prelaw students:

HISE 150 (Ancient/Medieval England)
HISE 153 (History of the Common Law)
HISA 120A, HISA 120B (The Supreme Court and the Constitution)

Education Abroad Program

The History Department encourages eligible students to participate in the Education Abroad Program (EAP). EAP is an excellent opportunity to travel and learn more about another country and its culture while taking courses which earn units toward graduation. In addition to year-long programs, a wide range of shorter options is available. While on EAP, students are still eligible for financial assistance. Students are advised to plan study abroad well in advance to ensure that the courses taken fit with their overall program at UCR. Consult the departmental student affairs officer for assistance. For further details see the University of California's EAP Web site at www.uoeap.ucsb.edu or contact UCR's International Services Center at (909) 787-4113.

See Education Abroad Program under International Services Center in the Student Services section of this catalog. A list of participating countries is found under Education Abroad Program in the Curricula and Courses section.

History Computing Facility

The History Computing Facility offers graduate students and faculty a unique opportunity to conduct quantitative research. The facility's microcomputers and terminals are networked to the campus interactive computing system, and the department's Computer Resource Specialist is ready to assist in the preparation and design of research projects. Consequently, the facility is at the center of the UCR graduate program.

Admissions

Applications for admission, due January 5, are normally for the fall quarter only, and the Graduate Division automatically processes all applications for the fall quarter. Under very special circumstances, exceptions may be made for admission in other quarters, after consultation with the graduate advisor. Applications received after January 5 are considered on May 1 on a space-available basis. Only fully completed applications receive attention. Scores for the aptitude sections of the GRE are required of all applicants. If the GRE is taken later than December, admissions decisions may be delayed. Applicants must submit a writing sample. Students taking the regular M.A. examinations or the Program in Historic Resources Management oral examinations may at that time request to be considered for admission to the doctoral program. They are rated as recommended, acceptable, or not recommended.

Students entering the master's degree program choose a faculty advisor from the department faculty within two quarters of commencing their studies. Students entering directly into the Ph.D. program choose a faculty advisor immediately upon entering the program. Students may change faculty advisors as they continue their studies, with the approval of the graduate advisor. The graduate advisor works closely with each student's faculty advisor in approving the student's course of study.

Master's Degree

The Department of History offers two programs of study leading to the master's degree: The Regular Program and the Program in Historic Resources Management. The requirements for admission and courses of study are different for the two programs.

Regular Program (M.A.)

The primary purpose of the M.A. degree at UCR is to prepare the student for research as a professional historian and to further study towards the Ph.D. Students taking the M.A. degree receive training for careers in teaching or other areas such as government service or journalism.

A candidate for the master's degree in the Regular Program must complete a minimum of 40 units of required course work beyond the baccalaureate. This must include

  1. At least 12 units of graduate courses related to the candidate's area of specialization (see list below)
  2. Four (4) units from the following:

    HIST 210 (Introduction to Economic History)
    HIST 236 (Quantitative Methods for Historians)
    HIST 238A (Oral History Methods and Theory)
    HIST 250 (New Directions in Historical Research)
    HIST 254 (Theory and Methods in History)

  1. At least 16 units in courses in two general areas of M.A. specialization listed below that are not in the candidate's area of specialization. One area also may be chosen from any Ph.D. field listed below that is outside the candidate's area of specialization. Eight (8) of the units must be at the graduate level. HIST 290 may be used to fulfill this requirement only with permission of the graduate advisor.
  2. At least one two-quarter graduate research seminar in the candidate's area of specialization

Language Requirement The candidate is required to demonstrate an ability to read one foreign language. Satisfying the foreign language requirement is a prerequisite for taking the comprehensive oral examination. The requirement can be fulfilled by showing basic proficiency in a departmental examination or by passing a designated language course.

Students who fail the examination in their chosen language four times and fail to pass the designated courses may not advance any further.

Qualifying Examination M.A. students are expected to take the department qualifying examinations in their field of specialization no later than spring quarter of their second year. The department qualifying examinations are based on course work and reading lists associated with each of the four areas of specialty. Department qualifying examinations are offered in all fields in the fall and spring quarters only.

Students receiving a grade of high pass on the qualifying examinations are allowed to enter directly into the Ph.D. program without having to complete the master's degree. Students who move directly into the Ph.D. program may obtain an M.A. degree by completing the requirements for the M.A.

Students receiving a grade of pass on the department qualifying examinations are allowed to proceed with work towards a master's degree. Upon completion of their M.A. comprehensive oral examination, students may be admitted into the Ph.D. program upon the recommendation of their oral examination committee and approval by the graduate study committee.

Students who fail the department qualifying examination are allowed to retake the examination; however, they must do so the next time the examinations are offered. Two failures on the department qualifying examination preclude a student from continuing in the graduate program.

Oral Examination Candidates must pass a comprehensive oral examination in their area of specialization to receive the M.A. degree. The candidate must present a substantive research paper for consideration by the examining committee. The research paper is normally developed from work in a research seminar in the candidate's major field of interest. The examining committee is chaired by the student's faculty advisor and includes at least one other faculty member chosen by the candidate and approved by the graduate study committee. The oral examination committee makes a recommendation to the graduate study committee as to whether the candidate should be allowed to enter the Ph.D. program. The graduate study committee makes the final determination whether the student is allowed to proceed to the Ph.D. program.

The comprehensive oral examination is normally completed within three quarters following the department qualifying examinations. Students who fail the comprehensive oral examination are allowed to retake the examination only once. They are expected to do so within two quarters following the term of their first attempt at the comprehensive oral examination.

Specialization The department offers four general areas of specialization: United States, Native American History, European History, and Latin America. Within the United States and European areas of specialization are several subspecialties. Detailed course options for each area are available from the department.

  1. United States Students specializing in the United States must complete HIST 201A, HIST 201B, and HIST 201C. They are also encouraged to take HIST 230. Candidates in United States history may select their advanced work from the following fields and related seminars:
    HIST 272A and HIST 272B (Seminar in American Colonial and Early National History)
    HIST 274A and HIST 274B (Seminar in Nineteenth-Century United States History)
    HIST 275A and HIST 275B (Seminar in Twentieth-Century United States History)
  1. Native American History The M.A. in Native American History prepares students to continue toward a Ph.D. in Native American History and for community based research with Native American nations. 

    Students specializing in Native American History must complete 16 units of graduate courses in the field, with at least 12 units from HIST 203A, HIST 203B, HIST 203C, and HIST 237. The remaining units should be taken from HIST 201A, HIST 201B, HIST 201C, HIST 206A, HIST 206B, or HIST 230. Students must also complete HIST 276A and HIST 276B, the seminar in Native American history.

  2. European History The M.A. in European History has two tracks: Early Modern European History and Modern European History. The M.A. program prepares students to continue towards a Ph.D. in European, British, and Russian History. 

    Students specializing in European History must complete HIST 200, take an additional 12 units of graduate courses for their track as specified below, and complete a two-quarter seminar in European history.

    Early Modern European History 12 units of European history graduate courses, of which at least 8 units are from HIST 202C, HIST 202D, or HIST 205A. For

    their seminar requirement, students may take HIST 251A and HIST 251B or HIST 253A and HIST 253B or HIST 256A and HIST 256B.
     Modern European History 12 units of European history graduate courses, of which at least 8 units are from HIST 202E, HIST 202F, HIST 202G, HIST 204, HIST 205B, HIST 208, HIST 209A or HIST 209B. For their seminar requirement, students may take HIST 251A and HIST 251B or HIST 255A and HIST 255B or HIST 256A and HIST 256B or HIST 258A and HIST 258B.

  1. Latin America Students specializing in Latin America must take at least 12 units of graduate courses related to their specialty, including HIST 206A and HIST 206B. They must also take HIST 285A and HIST 285B, the seminar in Latin American history.

Normative Time to Degree 6 quarters

Program in Historic Resources Management (M.A.)

This program provides education in history as well as technical training for historical careers in archives, historic preservation, museums, and other positions in the public sector.

Applicants for admission to the program normally must have the B.A. in History. The program accepts applicants having the B.A. in Anthropology, Art History, Political Science, or Sociology, provided that these applicants can demonstrate a satisfactory knowledge of history.

Students prepare in three areas:

  1. An historical field, in which the student is trained in academic research and historiography
  2. A professional specialty — archival management, historic preservation, or museum curatorship
  3. A subspecialty, consisting of courses taken outside the department related to the professional specialty

A candidate for the master's degree in this program must complete a minimum of 36 units of graduate and upper-division undergraduate units as follows:

  1. One graduate history two-quarter research seminar
  2. Two courses from any History courses numbered 200-250
  3. One course from HIST 260, HIST 262, HIST 263, chosen according to the student's subspecialty (The accompanying practicum must also be taken if offered.)
  4. Two upper-division undergraduate or graduate courses outside the department in subjects related to the subspecialty (from a list prepared by the program committee or with the graduate advisor's approval)
  5. Two additional upper-division undergraduate or graduate courses either in History or in another department in subjects relating to the subspecialty, chosen in consultation with the graduate advisor

All students must take HIST 398-I and HIST 402, which do not count in fulfilling the 36-unit requirement, followed by HIST 290.

Internship The candidate is required to take a ten-week internship, coincident with an academic quarter or summer session, at a cooperating institution, for training, under professional supervision, in a field of the candidate's choice. Internships are regularly offered at the Riverside Municipal Museum; the Riverside County Department of Parks — Office of the Historical Specialist; the San Bernardino County Museum; Colonial Williamsburg; and the Smithsonian Institute. The internship is registered with a History Department faculty advisor as HIST 398-I.

The internship requires writing a field report.

When the candidate's advisor and the Historic Resources Management Committee judge that an additional skill, particularly in the subspecialty, is needed, then a defined level of competency in that skill is required for the degree.

Oral Examination The candidate must pass an oral examination comprised of two parts, one part on the field-report-in-progress and a second part on the relevant elements of the candidate's field of history and the content of the subspecialty.

The committee on Historic Resources Management oversees the program in Historic Resources Management for the M.A. and coordinates program activities and departmental relations with historical societies, preservationist groups, local government organizations, museums, and archives.

Students in the Historic Resources Management Program who wish to continue on for the doctorate at UCR are eligible for the Ph.D. program on a case-by-case basis.

Doctoral Degree

The M.A. degree in History is not a prerequisite for admission to the doctoral program. Students not holding an M.A. degree in History and passing the department qualifying examination with a grade of high pass in one area of specialization are admitted to the Ph.D. program. Students with an advanced degree in a field closely related to History and involving significant study of history, such as American Studies, Latin American Studies, or Russian Studies, are reviewed by the graduate study committee on a case-by-case basis to determine if the student should be exempted from taking the department qualifying examination and be admitted directly into the Ph.D. program. Students with only a B.A. degree enter the M.A. program, even if their ultimate degree objective is the Ph.D.

Students in the Ph.D. program must prepare in three fields: a research field, a complementary field, and a teaching field. The research field must be chosen from the list of research fields below. The complementary and teaching fields shall be chosen from either the research fields or the additional fields below. Students are examined in the research and complementary fields by both written and oral examinations. Students prepare for the teaching field by completing at least 12 hours of relevant courses, with at least 8 hours at the graduate level, including at least one relevant Materials course from the sequence HIST 201-209. HIST 290 may be used towards this requirement only with permission of the graduate advisor. Students must also complete HIST 301.

In special cases, the student may petition to replace the complementary field with a custom field designed by the student in consultation with two faculty members who agree to administer the written examinations in that field. Students may not take three fields that deal exclusively with the same country or region. Students normally take their Ph.D. qualifying examinations and complete their teaching field course work no later than the seventh quarter following admission into the Ph.D. program.

Students must complete the materials courses in their research and complementary fields, before attempting the examinations. Students preparing a complementary field in Public History must complete HIST 402. Written examinations are offered in fall, winter, and spring quarters. A student may take written examinations separately in their research and complementary fields and may schedule the oral examination immediately after successfully completing their written examinations and their teaching field courses.

The committee for the oral examination, chaired by the student's faculty advisor, shall consist of five faculty members, or six where appropriate, nominated by the department and appointed by the graduate dean.

Research Fields:
Early America, 1607–1800
Nineteenth-Century United States, 1800–1896
Twentieth-Century United States, 1896–present
Native American History
Early Modern Europe
Europe, 1789–present
England, 1485–1832
England, 1714–present
Russia, 1801–present
Latin America, 1492–1810
Latin America, 1810–present
Public History
Additional Fields:
Comparative World History
Early Modern World History
Greek and Roman History
Social Science History
Women in Culture and Society

Language Requirement Every student in the doctoral program must demonstrate a proficiency in at least one foreign language equivalent to that required for the M.A. degree. Requirements successfully passed in a particular language while in the M.A. program may be counted towards meeting some requirements in the doctoral program. Specific additional language requirements for the doctoral program will depend on the students' research fields; students may need to show research proficiency in a language for the Ph.D., even if they showed basic proficiency in that language for the M.A. Consult the Department of History for the language requirements in each research field.

Candidates must pass all foreign language requirements before taking their Ph.D. research field written examinations, but the candidates may take the Ph.D. complementary field written examinations before completing their foreign language requirements. They may take the departmental examination in any one language not more than four times. Continued failure to make progress in required foreign language(s) may be cause for termination from the program. Some seminars involve the use of a foreign language.

Course Work Doctoral students should normally take at least two, two-quarter research seminars on the UCR campus, at least one of which must be taken after the M.A. has been granted or the student has successfully passed the department qualifying examination. If they have taken an M.A. seminar in this department or if they have written an M.A. thesis in a field of specialization, that is normally accepted for one of the two required seminars. Doctoral students must complete eight hours of courses on historical theory and methods. Four of these hours must be chosen from the following:

HIST 210 (Introduction to Economic History)

    HIST 236 (Quantitative Methods for Historians)
    HIST 238A (Oral History Methods and Theory)
    HIST 250 (New Directions in Historical Research)
    HIST 254 (Theory and Methods in History)

The additional four hours may also be chosen from these courses, or may consist of a course outside the department that is approved by the graduate advisor.

Dissertation and Final Oral Examination The student must submit to the graduate study committee a dissertation proposal approved by the student's faculty advisor, who is the chair of the dissertation committee, by the end of the next academic quarter after the student has been advanced to candidacy. See departmental guidelines for proposal requirements.

The candidate must submit an acceptable dissertation and pass a final oral examination. The dissertation, which must demonstrate scholarly, original, and independent investigation, is on a subject the student has chosen from the research field with the advice and approval of the dissertation committee. The final oral examination deals primarily with the relation of the dissertation to the general field in which it lies.

Normative Time to Degree including M.A. Work 17 quarters


HISTORY

LOWER-DIVISION COURSES
