Historical studies is not a separate interdisciplinary undergraduate program of study at UCSC, but two departments offer undergraduate majors based upon historical methods, including the interdisciplinary study of the past: the Department of History and the Department of History of Art and Visual Culture. One department, History of Consciousness, offers a highly respected interdisciplinary graduate program. In addition, UCSC offers an extensive array of major pathways and courses based on historical methods. Students can pursue historically oriented concentrations within majors in American studies, anthropology, economics, literature, philosophy, politics, sociology, and feminist studies.
