History Fellowship is a program for highly-motivated,
successful history and history/education students of at
least second-semester sophomore standing and a GPA of 3.5
or above in the major. Students who are accepted into the
program will be History Fellows for one of the lower-level
survey courses (previously taken by successful applicants
with at least an A- grade) and will be expected to do the
following:
- Write a research paper of 10 to 15 pages on a topic
that is included in the surveyed area or write a critical
journal of the class and a short book report
- Assist with the preparation of the class
- Assist with or lead group discussions
- Tutor
- Moderate Blackboard discussions
- Attend all class meetings, as well as individual meetings
with the instructors
The Fellows will enjoy one-to-one interaction
with the faculty members who will serve as their mentors,
gain a sense of responsibility, learn to think strategically
about pedagogical issues, and deepen their knowledge of
the course material. Teaching Fellowships will be available
to those who qualify and who succeed in a competitive process,
including an interview with the chair of the department.
