The BA (Hons) History introduces students to the full range of history from modern to mediaeval, from local to global, and develops the skills needed to analyse historical sources and to communicate their findings to the wider public.

This degree programme combines a rigorous history syllabus with a personalised elective pathway. Students can choose to deepen their focus on history through their elective courses, or they can further contextualise and broaden their studies with courses that match other interests and goals.

History students develop strong analytical and communication skills, they are adept at conducting research and critically assessing sources and can apply the knowledge needed to understand our past and present and the skills to shape our future. These valuable and transferable skills open up a wide array of career possibilities upon graduation.
