Each semester, the History Department publishes a student handbook that includes expanded course descriptions, cross-listed courses, five-college courses offered by History faculty, brief faculty biographies, and other information of interest to majors and minors. To access these courses, click on the Student Handbook Spring 2013 link.
Smith's online course catalogue includes course listings (description, instructor and offered terms), department data, information on majors and minors, honors programs, and cross–listed and interdepartmental courses. A search function allows you to find courses by course number, department, keywords in the title, term offered, number of credits, fields of knowledge and professor.
