• Fall is an excellent time to do so if you have not taken a 3001 and above level course yet. This coming fall term is also an excellent time to start planning for your future enrollment in HIST3000 (if you have not completed it yet). As a minor and major requirement, the sections fill up relatively fast. 
  • As a general rule of thumb, you should be planning on enrolling in HIST 3000 as early as you can because it not only helps you acquire skills you need for upper-level electives; but it also fills up fast.  
  • Again, in preparation for HIST 3000, we strongly advise all students to complete a course at the 3001-3099-level  course in our department first. Given that these mid-level courses are different than the 1000s, the 2000s, and AP courses, they offer an excellent opportunity for students to begin to get a sense of our expectations of history majors and minors at the University of Cincinnati.
  • Remember, History Internships fulfill upper-level electives credits (up to 6 credit hours), so it’s never too early to reach out to Dr. Wingo to get a sense of what internships are available or on the horizon. 
  • It is never too early to declare your major in history—as it opens the gateway for you to select major concentrations.
