What Counts as a Seminar

• Any 4000-level seminar offered by the Columbia or Barnard History Departments
• For the purposes of the seminar requirement for majors, the two-term Senior Thesis Seminar (HIST C4398/4399) counts as one 4-point seminar, normally inside the specialization. The remaining 4 points count toward the history major, but do not count as a seminar.
• Ordinarily, graduate courses count toward the seminar requirement.

The following do NOT count as seminars:

• Independent-study senior thesis projects (C4997/4998) do not count toward the seminar requirement
• Supervised Individual Research (C4951/C4952) does not count toward the seminar requirement.
