EDP, GS, H, SS- This history course examines the social, economic, political, intellectual, and artistic achievements of civilizations from the emergence of complex societies through the end of the ancient world (circa 500 C.E.). Students will obtain a global perspective by studying different cultures, worldviews and social institutions, as well as systems of thought and belief as they evolved through this historical period.

Courses in the World Civilizations series, HIST&126, HIST&127, and HIST&128 may be taken independently and in any order.
