History BA (Hons)

From medieval knights and early modern witches, highway robbers and French revolutionaries, to the trenches of the First World War. From the slums of Victorian London, the far corners of Empire, into the gilded homes of the aristocracy, and on to the rise of fascism – History BA (Hons) at the University of Northampton will take you on a journey through time and help you prepare for your future.

Study history with internationally recognized experts who take teaching as seriously as they take their research. We offer a supportive environment for learning where you can develop your love of history and learn vital life skills for your future career.

We will support you to achieve your career and study ambitions, which is why if you complete our Employability Plus Gold programme or Changemaker Gold certificate alongside your studies and if you haven’t secured full-time employment 12 months after graduating* we will secure a three – six month paid internship for you, or support you into postgraduate study.

This course offers innovative, research-driven topics on British, European, and Global history from the 13th century to the 21st century. You can study a range of themes, such as gender and emotions, social and cultural history, political and military, and the history of crime, medicine and the body. Throughout you will work with academics who regularly publish as experts in their fields.

The team of lecturers is big enough to offer a variety of modules, but small enough to provide you with a close-knit learning environment. You will know your tutors personally and see them regularly and there will always be someone to help you with your academic study, and to provide pastoral support hand–in-hand with Northampton’s excellent student support services.

Campus Information

Waterside Campus

In the summer of 2018 the University of Northampton moved to the brand-new Waterside Campus. This seven-year project saw a neglected brownfield site transformed into a successful and impressive new campus that facilitated a radical re-engineering of the University in terms of both teaching methodology and governance structures. aterside is a waterfront site of 24 hectares on the edge of the town centre. Its successful completion has turned a derelict site into a leading facility in the higher education sector. The project brief emphasised integration, of the University into the town and local community, and of departments, facilities and teams within the University itself. New pedestrian and road bridges and cycle routes link the site to the town, and public facilities and commercial outlets are part of a Waterside experience which continues beyond the University to local historic buildings and parks.
