The AA-T in History degree is supplemented by substantive courses such as Contemporary United States History: Vietnam to Iraq; African American History; Women in American History; Cultural History of Mexico; History of California; and the History of Latin America and the Caribbean. These courses cover a wide range of subjects; clearly there is something to satisfy everyone’s interest. Students are encouraged to go beyond simple memorization of names and dates and to actually get involved with the past. Assignments emphasize research skills, speculative analysis, and original thinking and the ability to compare and contrast the past with current events. Students emerge from these classes with the sense that the study and evaluation of the past need not be stagnant; rather it is an ever evolving process. The Associate in Art in History for Transfer (AA-T in History) degree meets the requirements of SB 1440 for Associate Degrees for Transfer (ADT). These degrees are intended to make it easier for students to transfer to California State University campuses, but do not exclude admittance to other colleges or universities. To earn an Associate in Art in History for Transfer (AA-T in History) degree a student must complete the following: - Completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units of degree-applicable courses - A minimum of 18-semester units in a major or area of emphasis, as determined by the community college district - Completion of the Cal-GETC pattern - Minimum grade of “C” (or “P”) for each course in the major - Minimum overall grade point average of 2.0\n\n### Program Requirements" }, { "kind": "courselist", "rows": [ { "type": "comment", "text": "History AA-T: Complete all of the following", "units": "18" }, { "type": "comment", "text": "Required Core", "units": "3" }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST C1001", "title": "United States History to 1877", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST C1001H", "title": "United States History to 1877 - Honors", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "comment", "text": "Required Core", "units": "3" }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST C1002", "title": "United States History since 1865", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST C1002H", "title": "United States History since 1865 - Honors", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "comment", "text": "Required Electives List A: Complete all of the following", "units": "6" }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 104", "title": "Introduction to World Civilizations, from Human Beginnings Until 1500", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 105", "title": "Introduction to World Civilization, 1500 - Present", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "comment", "text": "Required Electives List B - Select one course from each area", "units": "6" }, { "type": "comment", "text": "Area 1", "units": "3" }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 110", "title": "African-American History, 1450-1877", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 110H", "title": "African-American History, 1450-1877 Honors", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 111", "title": "African-American History, 1877-Present", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 111H", "title": "African-American History, 1877-Present Honors", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 113", "title": "Women in American History", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 115", "title": "Cultural History of Mexico", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 119", "title": "History of Latin America and the Caribbean", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "comment", "text": "Area 2", "units": "3" }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 114", "title": "History of California", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 116", "title": "Contemporary U.S. History: From Vietnam to Iraq", "units": "3", "indent": false }, { "type": "course", "code": "HIST 118", "title": "American West History, 1806-Present", "units": "3", "indent": false } ] }, { "kind": "text", "markdown": "### Recommended Pathway\n\n#### History AA-T\n\n**Term 1** (16 units)\n\n- HISTC1001 - United States History to 1877 (3)\n- HISTC1001H - United States History to 1877 - Honors (3)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 1C (3)\n- ENGLC1000 - Academic Reading and Writing (4)\n- MATH110 - Mathematics for Liberal Arts Students (3)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 3A (3)\n\n**Term 2** (15 units)\n\n- HISTC1002 - United States History since 1865 (3)\n- HISTC1002H - United States History since 1865 - Honors (3)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 1B (3)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 4 (3)\n- General Elective (3)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 5A (3)\n\n**Term 3** (14 units)\n\n- HIST104 - Introduction to World Civilizations, from Human Beginnings Until 1500 (3)\n- HIST110 - African-American History, 1450-1877 (3)\n- HIST110H - African-American History, 1450-1877 Honors (3)\n- HIST111 - African-American History, 1877-Present (3)\n- HIST111H - African-American History, 1877-Present Honors (3)\n- HIST113 - Women in American History (3)\n- HIST115 - Cultural History of Mexico (3)\n- HIST119 - History of Latin America and the Caribbean (3)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 5B (3)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 5C (1)\n- General Elective (1)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 4 (3)\n\n**Term 4** (15 units)\n\n- HIST105 - Introduction to World Civilization, 1500 - Present (3)\n- HIST114 - History of California (3)\n- HIST116 - Contemporary U.S. History: From Vietnam to Iraq (3)\n- HIST118 - American West History, 1806-Present (3)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 3B (3)\n- Any Cal-GETC GE Area 6 (3)\n- General Elective (3)\n\n### Program Outcomes\n\n### History AA-T" } ] }
