Below is a typical fall-spring sequence for a full-time student planning to complete a B.S. in Diplomacy and Military Studies in four regular academic years (no summers). Summer and/or winter courses could be taken to expedite the completion of the degree process. Please take this proposed 4-year plan as only a model. Completion of the History major will depend on what courses are offered during a given semester, as well as which courses are chosen to fulfill General Education requirements.
