HIS 2891 Colloquium in Global History, Medieval Islamic Civilization: Material Culture, Scientists, and Philosophy (600-1300 c.e.): Dr. Martinez
When the Prophet Muhammad (c. 570-632) conveyed Islam to the Arabian Peninsula, he initiated an impressive transformation of human civilization that outpaced and outcompeted European communities in almost every tangible measure. Scientific methods and exploration proliferated, religious and political philosophies cut new paths, and the bountiful arts benefited from generous patronage. In this colloquium we will investigate the essential intellectual and material culture achievemnents produced by yhe Umayyad, Abbasid, and Fatimid Caliphates.

HIS 2405 The American Military and Its Wars, 1898 to the Present: Dr. Zeman
This course is a survey of the development of the American military from the period of the Spanish-American War to the present. Emphasis will be placed on the development of the growth of the American military within the American society and how the role of America's military changed from a small constabulary and coastal defense force, into a global power.
