The Associate in Arts in History for Transfer Degree is designed to enable students to explore a broad understanding of the social, political, cultural and economic events and forces that have shaped our nation’s past, present and future. In addition to studying the history of the United States, history majors will study other civilizations and cultures gaining a broader perspective and better understanding of the contemporary world. Through a diverse curriculum, students learn to gather, synthesize, analyze and interpret historical evidence, building a strong foundation that prepares students to either transfer to a four-year college or succeed in numerous career paths, such as teaching, law, business administration, journalism and public service.\n\n**In addition to the courses listed below, the following requirements must be met for completion of the AA-T Degree in History:**\n\n1.  Completion of 60 CSU-transferable semester units.\n2.  Achievement of a minimum GPA of at least 2.0 in all CSU-transferable coursework. (Some majors may require a higher GPA. Students should consult with a counselor for more information.)\n3.  Completion of the major with a grade of “C” or better in each course or a \"P\" if the course was taken on a Pass/No Pass basis and the \"P\" is equal to a \"C\" or better.\n4.  Completion of the California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC). The California State University General Education-Breadth (CSU GE) or Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) may be used in some cases; please see a counselor for details.\n\nStudents are advised to check with the Counseling Department or Transfer Center for the courses accepted into the History major at the CSU where they seek transfer."
