Overview

The History and English major at Emory University seeks a coherence that draws upon expertise in each department to aid the student in fashioning an individual program.

Features

The exact nature of the student's class list should be worked out in consultation with the student's adviser in each department. There are no geographical or chronological limits placed on the joint major, but a thematic unity is expected. Student participation in the intellectual life of each department is a high priority.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

Seven courses in history, five of which must be above the 200 level, one of which must be a 400-level writing-intensive colloquium, and all of which must demonstrate a thematic coherence

Six courses in English beyond the 100 level, four of which must be 300 or 400 level writing-intensive courses and all of which must demonstrate a thematic coherence.

One writing course, which may be either an honors thesis, a directed reading that produces a senior essay of at least 5,000 words to be read by the student's advisers in each department, or (with advance written permission of the professor and both advisers) an upper-division course in either department in which the student writes a term paper developing specific relationships between history and literature.
