Additional writing assignments, including critical analysis of sources and either an expanded course research paper or an additional paper above the requirements for the 400-level. History faculty will assess graduate student discussion and writing at a higher level of sophistication, argument, evidence, and conclusions than discussion and writing at the undergraduate level.
