Prerequisite(s): None Covering a wide range of world history (Prehistoric to Middle Ages, Western and Asian Civilizations), this course provides an overview of events, civilizations, and cultures throughout time that form major historical shifts. Students will analyze a series of case studies with particular focus on governments, technology, religion, and culture, and how clashes between these (and other) themes created changes in culture, power, and civilizations.
