Institution:

Hilbert College

Subject:

Description:

This is a survey course of global geography and human history. Emphasis is placed on: a) gaining a basic knowledge of the critical events in world history, b) gaining a basic knowledge of political and physical geography and the ways in which they are both cause and effect of history, and c) understanding the events at a global level, that is, being able to identify events as taking place in the same periods even though they happened in different regions. This class is half of a two-semester series. Although ideally students will take both halves, each course stands alone and can be taken in any order.
