World History 103 (Global Problems in History)
Description: Global Problems in History is a course that seeks to explore, at the survey level, important thematic issues in world history. At present, the topic-to-be for the next incarnation of this course is still undetermined. When I am scheduled to teach the course again in the future, more specific information on topics and a rough draft of the potential syllabus will be posted here.
Note: For those of you who have taken History 103 in Autumn Semester 2006 or Spring Semester 2007, that incarnation of this class has now been permanently listed in the UNLV course catalog as History 209 (World History, 1500 to the present). Please do not register for History 209 a second time, otherwise you will simply repeat a class you have already taken previously.
NOTE: You will need a username and password to access course files. If you are registered for the course and do not have it, please e-mail me so I can get it to you as soon as possible.
