World History from 750 to 1750 CE - HONORS

Starting from 750 Common Era (CE) and covering to 1750 CE, this course explores the convergence of, or increasing encounters between the world's peoples, cultures, and civilizations. Students will gain an interdisciplinary, multi-perspective view of world history, using a thematic approach and offering a balanced, representative and inclusive sampling of the world's cultures from Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania. Because this is an honors program course, students will be expected to complete extra assignments, or an additional longer assignment, to gain deeper insight into world history between 750 and 1750 CE.
