AHIS399: Capstone Unit: Egypt and the Near East
This 3cp 300-level Capstone Unit is specially designed and will be offered in the form of a research project on a choice of set topics relevant to Ancient History: Egypt and the Near East. Students independently collect, assess, analyse and interpret relevant evidence in the light of current historical thinking. In addition to seminar participation (regular discussion, a bibliographical portfolio, a learning journal, and a brief work-in-progress interview and outline), the unit culminates in a mini-thesis of 5,000 words in which students demonstrate their intellectual development over the course of their degree program within this major.
