BA(Hons) History
Why study history?
History isn't just about facts. It's about the human experience in all its diversity. It's also about acquiring a sense of enquiry, which will sustain you during and after your studies.
History is a long-established discipline, much respected by employers because of the critical skills it gives you.
Understanding the past equips us to engage more intelligently with the present and to play a more valuable and informed part in society, whatever career path you decide to follow.
