Capstone Unit: Egypt and the Near East - AHIS399

This unit will be offered in the form of a research project on a choice of set topics relevant to ancient history: Egypt and the Near East. Students independently collect, assess, analyse and interpret relevant evidence in the light of current historical thinking. In addition to seminar participation (regular discussion, a bibliographical portfolio, a learning journal, and a brief work-in-progress interview and outline), the unit culminates in a mini-thesis of 5000 words in which students demonstrate their intellectual development over the course of their degree program.
