HIST 17AH

About this course

This course examines U.S. civilization to the Early National Era. Students will survey the social, cultural, political, economic, and intellectual development of the Colonial Era with an emphasis on the era of the American Revolution, the development of the Constitution, and the role of the major ethnic, social, and gender groups in the American experience. Because this is an honors program course, students will be expected to complete extra assignments, or an additional longer assignment, to gain deeper insight into American history from the colonial period to the early national era.

No section is scheduled at De Anza College for Fall 2026. The course can still be offered in a later quarter.

Enrollment availability changes frequently. Confirm status in the official FHDA registration system before enrolling.
