Undergraduate History courses

  • A lecturer stands in front of a slide reading 'Sending you out into the world as engaged citizens, capable of asking the questions, and finding the answers, that help you comprehend and shape the society around you.'

    Exploring the past helps you to understand and prepare for the future.

    History is not a plain narrative of events, it is an attempt to discover how and why our own world emerged. Choose to study across the medieval, early modern and modern periods with a vast geographical span encompassing the Americas, Britain and Europe, China, the Middle East, and South Asia. Tailor your degree to your interests as you explore what type of Historian you are whilst developing the key skills for your future career.
