Summer Courses

MSU's History department offers a variety of high-quality online courses for both summer sessions. You can take any level of courses from anywhere in the world and make progress toward your degree—all you need is an internet connection. You can finish an introductory class over the summer and then take more advanced courses during the year, or you could take an upper-level specialty course online on a range of topics. You do not have to be an MSU student to take our online courses. You can be a student someplace else or simply any person with a high school diploma (or equivalent) who wants to learn more about history.
