Non-Western History Class Questions
#1
I'm close to finishing Films of the Cold War and I'm starting to think about my next class. With my U.S. and pre-modern requirements underway, I just need to pick a class to complete the non-Western one. I don't see any of the available non-Western classes on the wiki's degree plan page.

Does anyone have any experience with any of these classes?

  • HTY 370 - Topics: Native American History
  • HTY 370 - Topics: Arab-Israeli Conflict
  • HTY 377 - Modern China
Also, if I wanted to for the UL electives, would UMPI let me take 2 topics classes? (the two HTY 370's)

I did Arab-Israeli Conflict. It was one of the "fastest" courses I did in my major, if that's a concern, and I also personally enjoyed it. I didn't take the other two, so I can't speak to them.

Thank you for the input! Tbh, I'm more concerned about not choosing a "long" course than I am about choosing a "short" one. Arab-Israeli Conflict sounds like it'll be interesting, so that's the route I'll be taking. I'm actually pretty interested in all 3 of these classes, so I might take the other 2 if I don't hear bad things about them (and if I'm allowed to take another Topics class).

Just requested the class. Will see how this goes Big Grin

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to take HTY370 twice since they are different topics. That's probably a question for your academic advisor.

You should be able to fill available UL history electives with any 300-400 level history class you want. At least that's how it was when I went through the program in the spring.

Arab Israeli was a great, quick course. I have heard that the other 2 are quite lengthy.

Yea, it's been a pretty enjoyable class so far. I feel like I've learned a lot from it.

I heard it was short, but I never expected it to be this short. Only 3 outcomes, one of them being "Are You Ready For the Final Assessment?" and another being a simple introduction to globalization. Currently writing my final assessment right now lol
