Very difficult to decide which one because I really like both! Since I'm only taking 1 course per semester, which is all I can do now due to work, I figure I have until the end of next year to make up my mind. I've already completed Historical Research Methods and am taking Roman Republic & Empire now. I'm off for the Spring semester to take care of other commitments, but in the Summer I'm signing up for Historiography with Greek Civilization in the Fall. I figure if I do switch the 2 subject courses will work nicely as electives since the Founders drew so much inspiration from both Ancient Greece and Rome. So hard to decide which one...
Yeah, I can see how it would be hard to decide! Of course, I think American history would be a little easier to research.....you live here, for one thing.
And a lot of American records have been digitized and so forth. Not so sure how many ancient records have been digitized. Your degree plan allows for two electives? Mine only allowed for one.
Quote:A question for you, do you know if APU has copies of previously submitted theses we can look at? I know of several universities that have placed their's online and I find those to be helpful in getting an overall idea of what to do. Thanks and again: CONGRATS!!!
I asked my professor that a few weeks ago, actually....he said they aren't online yet, but APU is apparently working on it. They do give you a couple of sample theses once you register for the course though.
