HST 495 Methods of Historical Inquiry

About this research opportunity

This unique section of HST 495: Methods of Historical Inquiry is part of the Online Undergraduate Research Scholars (OURS) Program, which offers ASU Online students the opportunity to conduct research on campus with ASU faculty. This hybrid section of HST 495 will focus on the history of Arizona and offers you the opportunity to engage in a week-long archival experience on campus in Tempe, Arizona. Students in this class will come to Tempe during the week of August 19 to August 23, 2024. During this week, students will conduct research in the archival collections, exploring the territorial history of Arizona and the history of the Grand Canyon. After the in-person experience, the course will then be completed asynchronously in Canvas during the remainder of the Fall 2024 A session.

For a look at the Fall 2022 version of this course and a sense of  the student experience, please see this ASU News article: https://news.asu.edu/20221004-history-happening-today.

This is a dynamic dated experience that will require the online students to attend activities on-campus (8/19-8/23) BEFORE fall session A start. Please check with instructors for more information.
